Blackhawk Down, Fort Drum, New York

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Catholic : One Thread

Please pray for the soldiers aboard the Blackhawk helicopter which crashed yesterday afternoon in a heavily wooded, snow-covered area on Fort Drum, New York.

These dedicated soldiers were members of the United States Army's elite 110th Mountain Division. Four were in the Aviation section, and nine were infantrymen.

Of the 13 passengers, only two survived. One is in critical condition; the other in serious condition.

Please pray for the souls of the deceased; for the recovery of the survivors, for consolation of the families and fellow soldiers they leave behind.

Pax Christi.

I pray for the families and hope they can cope. How sad. They will all be missed and forever on our minds and in our hearts.
