Last week, two U.S. Navy crew members were declared dead following a crash of their Boeing EA-18G Growler aircraft near Mount Rainier during a training flight.
Cmdr. Timothy Warburton expressed the Navy's heartache over the loss of two beloved Zappers, emphasizing priorities in family support and the well-being of Sailors.
The crew were conducting routine training when their aircraft crashed in a remote, heavily-wooded area, transitioning recovery efforts after searching for days.
The Zapper squadron had recently returned from a deployment in the Middle East prior to the tragic training flight incident.
