Crash

I just heard on the news that a Black Hawk helicopter, stationed here at Schofield, crashed today in Iraq, killing all 14 on board.

I am so sad.

And a little scared for my neighbors and friends whose husband's fly those helicopers, and are finishing up a 15 month Iraq tour.

I will keep the families of those soldiers in my prayers.

So sad! Hopefully it was no one you know. That sounds awful to say, though.

Praying for the families...
