Two Special Operations Aviation Soldiers die in helicopter training accident

Fuck. I know CPT Dave Hortman. We met at SC Boy's State during HS, Applied to West Point, went back to Boy's State as staff, and entered West Point together. I hadn't seen him since graduation.

Dave, you were a helluva guy, truly. You were a freakin stud and you were a guy I looked up to at the Academy. Blue Skies man. Well done, be thou at peace.

To Dave's family, you have my condolences. I'm so sorry.
