Justin DBC Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 (edited) Not much out there right now, but a US Navy helicopter went down during night ops training somewhere off the coast of San Diego. 5 are missing.. Latest says 3 dead, 2 missing. "Reporting from San Diego -- Rescue crews have recovered the bodies of three of the five people aboard a Navy helicopter that crashed about 25 miles off the Southern California coast, officials said today. The HH60 helicopter was on a training mission near the Coronado Islands for an unspecified upcoming deployment when it crashed at about 11:36 p.m. Tuesday. The U.S. Coast Guard responded and officials are searching for the remaining two passengers." RIP. Hopefully by some miracle they find the other 2 alive and well.... Hard to keep much hope after this much time has elapsed though... J- Edited May 20, 2009 by Justin DBC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
