Blackhawk down !
 
A UH-60 Blackhawk crashed south of Rochester, NY last night (6:30 est). There were no survivors. 2 of the 3 dead were good friends of mine. What a gut punch.

RIP my brothers

I saw your cross post on the chance a GFM site is set up.

Let me know and I'll contribute in their honor.

Dustoff. Matt, I don't know you but call on me brother, if you need a hand.

Groesbeck Hurricane 01-21-2021 09:50 AM

VERY sorry to hear this! God's Speed! Keep your head up! Know people care about you and your friends!

Used to pray May we get to Heaven before the devil knows we're dead a bit of bravado to ease the mind

MBAtarga 01-21-2021 10:13 AM

Matt - I too am sorry to hear this.

Hard-Deck 01-21-2021 12:58 PM

Matt, sorry to hear this sad news. I’ll hoist a toast to them tonight. PM me if you need to talk to a Soldier.

I was lucky enough to serve as the senior legal advisor for a Combat Aviation Brigade at Ft Bliss Texas, 1st Armored Division a few years ago.

The best assignment I had in 22 years. Absolute top shelf people! I have maintained contact with many of them since we all went our separate ways. I would serve with them again at a moments notice anytime!

They were kind enough to get me Knighted into the Order of Saint Michael.

Never a good day when we lose someone from the Army Aviation community.

Here is the story from Army Times. You will have to tolerate the ads, sorry.

Nope :(

Sorry about your loss, and I feel for their families right now as well.

Bob Kontak 01-21-2021 02:01 PM

My sympathies to you, the three servicemen and their families.

rusnak 01-21-2021 02:04 PM

Oh no. I am saddened by the loss to us all. My heart goes out to you Matt, as well as their family members.

Bill Douglas 01-21-2021 03:26 PM

Condolences to family and friends.
