None of the pilots or crewcheifs were severely injured but the passengers got banged up pretty good and sadly, there was one fatality. Environmental conditions are the main cause for the crash. They came in to land and got dusted out and lost sight of the ground, landed crooked and rolled over. Just wanted to ask for support for the family of the soldier we lost. My prayers go out to him. They held the ramp ceremony last night and sent him home this morning. Hopefully he makes it without delay due to all the volcanic ash. Report
