I don't know if this has hit the news outside my area or not, or even been posted about but I'm at work so I really don't have time to look. Mods if this belongs somewhere else please move it.....
Some of you know that DH finished his enlistment with the Air Force last week and my step-father retired at our base. Well one of our planes crashed this morning. I'm still not exactly sure what happend. Something aobut the C-5 (pig on wings my step-father calls them) lost an engine, they dumped fuel and were trying to land but crashed in a field near the base. From what I've heard 3 people were medivaced to a hospital up north and the other people were taken to our local hospital. Some of them walked in ther Praise God! I havn't heard anything else.
Please keep my area in your prayers right now. I'm not sure if it was a combination of military and civilians on the plane or what. I'm just upset and trying to remember where each of my friends or their spouces work. I'm sure some of the people on the plane were from my husband's squadron since he was in cargo transporation and I know people fly with the planes from his squadron. My step-father's squadron were the engine mechanics. I'm sure he's fuming over it right now because he took pride in getting his planes working right and wondering what happend. (He hasn't worked there in a year now.)
Thanks for all your prayers. If any of you have family in the Dover area, particularly military, feel free to PM me and I'll be trying to find out more
