CH-46 Helicopter Crash....

I know this is old but i saw this (the video) for the first time now since it happened. This is the CH-46 helicopter that crashed off the coast of Cali a few years back...

I was there the day this crashed...infact, it was my unit which lost 5 Force Recon Marines in this accident, all close friends of mine. The worst part of this was in the HeadQuarters building right after the crash and listening to the wives and children walking around asking for their daddy, not knowing the death toll or names of those who parrished at the time. Being the company armorer, I got the weapons to hold onto after the crash that was recovered off the bodies and from the seabed until the investigation was over. I got to see the those weapons as a reminder everyday of my life for 8 months after the crash. I've never seen M4's and Rem 870's bend around a body before at 90 degree angles...The blunt force trauma must have been incredible.

Anywho, just thought i'd share.
