C-130 Crash in Mississippi

[Dame]

Looks like it was from the Millington Air Base. God rest those that didn't make it and healing prayers to survivors.
5 confirmed dead in military plane crash in LeFlore County, 9 believed to be on board

ETA: Looks like six now confirmed dead and it was a USMC aircraft. Not Millington.

Rest in peace.

What a horror show. Plane corkscrewed into the ground. 16 confirmed dead so far.

RIP.

 

[DA SWO]

RIP.

Wall Street Journal is reporting the non-crew members as MARSOC personnel.

 

[Gunz]

Yeah, small arms, ammo and a Navy Corpsman would indicate trigger-pullers of some sort... Such a shame.

 

[Teufel]

That unit has been hard hit. Very tragic. Until Valhalla warriors.

Fair winds and following seas, Marines. The world is a dimmer place without the light from the fires of your souls.

Anyone know if our resident Raider members are ok? Stanimal, Hillclimb, joe24, and any others I may be forgetting?

While not "green tagged", pretty sure HateApe falls under that category.
