Blue Angel Pilot Killed in Crash; Thunderbird Crashes, Pilot Unhurt


F/A-18s in the Missing Man Formation


Sad to hear about the Blue Angel pilot who was killed in a crash yesterday. In a bizarre coincidence, a Thunderbird crashed the same day. Luckily, the pilot was unhurt.

We all go to airshows and can easily think these guys are invincible flying around at high speeds far above the enemy, but it's important to remember that these guys are doing a dangerous job. Keep all the soldiers, sailors, airmen, and marines in your thoughts and prayers.

These two incidents are only a drop in the bucket of what the men and women of our armed forces endure on a routine basis.

  1. 5 Soldiers Dead, 4 Missing After Fort Hood Vehicle Overturns in Flooded Area.... It's a dangerous business, even in peacetime. Prayers for the fallen.
