6 killed in crash 

On thursday there was a helicopter crash in southern Afghanistan. There were 6 US Marines. They said that the helicopter was not hit by enemy fire.they are still trying to figure out what caused the helicopter to go down? This was on of the most deadly crash since the crash in Chinook that was apparently shot down in Wardak province. 

My thoughts on the crash is that it is bad for our country. this is because we lost 6 of the people that protected our country. Another is that i want to know how the helicopter went down? I think it was like another crash that was similar to this and it was a mechanical problem. Also for this to to be the 2nd most deadly crash that has happened in Afghanistan.

nice post keaton. Yea that sounds like it was a really bad event. Kinda wierd though that they crashed but were not hit by enemy fire. Also, kinda wish the defense official of Afghanistan would let out more info though, and I agree it was bad for our country.

But it makes it worse when you don't know all the info and it happens in another country.
