Jo Ellis was identified as one of the pilots involved in the tragic Black Hawk helicopter crash near Reagan National Airport on January 29, 2025. Here are some key points about Jo Ellis based on available information:

Military Service: Jo Ellis was a Chief Warrant Officer 2 (CW2) serving in the Virginia Army National Guard as a UH-60 Black Hawk pilot.
Personal Journey: Ellis was known for balancing a lifelong commitment to military service with the courage to live authentically as a transgender woman. This journey was highlighted in various posts on X and articles, discussing the challenges and significance of transgender service members in the military.
Controversy: After the crash, there were discussions and speculations regarding Ellis’s role in the incident, particularly focusing on her transgender identity and previous social media activity. Some posts on X suggested Ellis had anti-Trump sentiments, leading to speculations about deliberate intentions, though these claims are based on social media posts and should be treated as inconclusive.

It’s important to note that the information surrounding Jo Ellis’s involvement in the crash, particularly any suggestions of intent, are based on social media posts and have not been officially confirmed or substantiated by authoritative sources. The discourse around this incident reflects broader societal conversations about diversity, inclusion, and the military.

Grok yesterday asking the same question had two of the three that died they where Ryan O’Hara & Andrew Eaves. We do not know the third. I don't know why Grok has zero names today.
