Sad news: the military has announced the missing five airmen and sailor are believed deceased in the Cyclone crash into the Ionian sea. The search and rescue mission has now become search and recovery meaning they have exhausted the possible survival window for victims #RIP #CAF
To be clear: five people in total. Four airmen and one sailor.
The #CAF is small - everyone is one maybe two degrees apart. A lot of people are going to be hurting with this news. That hope of a miracle dashed. Heart goes out to all who knew them.
