Default Coast Guard Helicopter Crash

I know this dont have nothing to do with Z.



last night at 8:15 pm (during the Z meet up), a coast guard helicopter crash 5 miles offshore of Honolulu. they report 3 dead, 1 missing. im a Coast Guard member, and part of the search and rescue team looking for that coastie missing. I personaly know some of this guys. Just wanna ask you guys to keep this guys in your prayers and dont forget that if you are out at sea, this guys are the ones putting their lives in danger, so you can go home to your family. If you are in the military, or you family is part of the military, you know that we are a big family. thanks for your guys support and be safe out there, you never know what can happend.


p.s. You guys are my family too!

I thought of you as soon as we got the call. I'm really sorry about your loss. We recovered the helicopter this morning and it's sitting outside my office, very sad. I know you are a very small community on the island so I figured you knew some, if not all of the crew.

My condolences to the families and fellow crewmembers.

I was on duty that night the chopper crashed, and i was on standby to launch our jet ski off barbers point. But we were a last resort in case the current was running past our first in area.

I'm very sorry for these men that were involved in the accident, and i give them my prayers.
