My bro who is a PA just got off the phone with me and handled all the on-slaught from local & national media on this one, aparently a large portion of the base was out for the rehersal watching the show. Thoughts and prayers are with the family.
Just a little food for thought, as much as some in the military demonize the media. I have to give credit where credit is due. When someone goes down from a flagship act, the press hasn't automatically named names. (There has been far too much of it this summer) They could if they wanted to, since these units are usually very well publicized with in-depth bios and numbered jet...but I've noticed so far this year that the press hasn't been so cold as release the names of the deceased without the blessing from PA.
But back to the important point, cheers to our friends from the north
