1LT Dustin Shannon, 23, and Chief Warrant Officer James Wallenburg, 40, were taking part in a night time training flight near Camp Page, Chuncheon, South Korea when poor weather conditions contributed to the accident.
We lose people in all manner of circumstances. These two pilots were on a routine mission. But no mission is really routine. They were training and serving in an area that was and has become even more volatile. Eternal vigilance can have a price. These two pilots paid the ultimate price that night.
We will never forget them, we can't. These soldiers gave their lives for freedom. The cause for which they died can never be let go, nor can the memories of those who fought.
