Two Marine CH-53Es Crash in Waters of Djibouti (Calling RidleUSMC)

Chris,

    Thanks for the invite!  I'd love to attend but my wife told me that my Reserve Duty orders just showed up in the mail yesterday!  Talk about irony, I'll be back on Active Duty (ADSW work) while you're getting out.  Can't complain, headed to Camp Smith, HI.  Could be worse places. 

    You have my email address, keep in touch!

Semper Fi!

Carl

Hey Guys,

Thanks again for your thoughts and prayers.  Everybody knows that it's a dangerous business, but that doesn't make it any easier.  My thoughts and prayers are with these Marines' Families. 

Carl, if you're coming to the Air Station around April 21st, you can come to my EAS party. 

Semper Fi,

Chris

My deepest thoughts & sincereset wishes from this side of the world.

Chris,

     I'll drop by the flightline the next time I'm down there; should be around April or so.  We just moved a MRH out of the area and dropped off a ZA9 MGB. 

Semper Fi!

Carl

My prayers to your squadron and the families of those that gave their lives.

They are missed

thanks for your prayers guys.  I don't really know very much about it, and it wouldn't be right to comment or speculate right now. 

Semper Fi,

Chris

Heard there were definitely 2 rescued, but uncertain about the rest.  Hopin to hear more were picked up.  Chris, I hope you and your buddies are ok...
