Because, as of right, now they are the only ones we know of who died on the chopper. When the others are known they will get attention as well. Reports are that 31 died, they were only SEALs?
'"The operators from SEAL Team Six were flown by a crew of the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment.
One source says the team was thought to include 22 SEALs, three Air Force air controllers, seven Afghan Army troops, a dog and his handler, and a civilian interpreter, plus the helicopter crew."'

I have been watching Fox News and they were talking about the SEALs so I had no info regarding the other crew/passengers.
This is just awful. Although the SEALs are the highest profile victims, all are missed and will be looked upon as heroes of the Republic.

What a horrible, tragic loss. Prayers for their brave souls, human and animal.
