NORTH ISLAND, Calif. (NNS) -- The names of the four Helicopter Sea Combat Squadron (HSC) 23 Sailors who died on Jan. 26 in a helicopter crash have been released.
The dead are: Lt. Adam A. Dyer, 28, Lafayette, La.; Petty Officer 1st Class Cory J. Helman, 27, New Richmond, Wis.; Lt. j.g. Laura J. Mankey, West Hills, Calif.; and Petty Officer 2nd Class Christopher M. Will, 29, Warren, Mich.
Their Navy MH-60S Knighthawk helicopter crashed into the Pacific Ocean while conducting a routine training mission off USS Bonhomme Richard (LHD 6) near San Clemente Island.
Will was recovered Friday and transported by helicopter to Bonhomme Richard where he was pronounced dead. The search and rescue (SAR) effort for the remaining three crewmembers continued, but by 3 p.m. on Jan. 27 the mission shifted to a recovery effort.
The cold water temperature and the time that elapsed since the crash occurred led Navy officials to conclude that aircrew survivability was extremely unlikely. The Navy is evaluating the feasibility of salvaging the aircraft.
The Navy is currently conducting an investigation to determine the cause of the incident.

Rest Safely and Securely in God's Loving Arms, Cory.
Going home, going home, I'm just going home. Quiet-like, slip away- I'll be going home. It's not far, just close by; Jesus is the Door; Work all done, laid aside, Fear and grief no more. Friends are there, waiting now. He is waiting, too. See His smile! See His hand! He will lead me through. |
