The last member of the three-person crew of the Black Hawk that crashed into an American Airlines passenger flight, resulting in the looses of 67 people, has been identified.
The U.S. Army has identified Captain Rebecca Lobach, the helicopter’s pilot, as the last member of the crew that was involved in the unfortunate incident. She was 28 years old at the time.
The family of Lobach requested that the U.S. Army not disclose her identity, and the Army first complied. However, on Saturday, the family made their own statement on her loss, and the Army reversed its position.
Lobach’s family sent a statement to the media … highlighting her achievements throughout her time in the service and emphasizing that she put in a lot of effort to get her current position.
Furthermore, the Lobach family claims that Rebecca assisted at the White House by planning events for the President and First Lady, who are likely Joe and Jill Biden.
It is important that her family is saying that she deserved to be in the military since earlier this week, Donald Trump said that the pilot was completely responsible for the tragedy.
Earlier this week, the identities of the other two crew members were revealed. They are Chief Warrant Officer 2 Andrew Eaves and Staff Sergeant Ryan Austin O’Hara.
The reason of the collision that resulted in the losses of 67 persons is still unknown. The National Transportation Safety Board and the Federal Aviation Administration are still looking into the matter.
