Semper Fi Marines. Hemland Province, Afghanistan. These men went down in the middle of the night. Crash investigation ruled out enemy involvement. Were these brave men lost due to the defective bolts mentioned up thread? Looking that way to me.

Would be in the mishap report it they were. But since both pilots were killed, I'm going with 'pilot error'.
