The Army on Tuesday released the names of two crew members who were injured and another who died in a training flight crash in Maryland the day before.
Spc. Jeremy Darrell Tomlin, 22, a UH-60 crew chief assigned to the 12th Aviation Battalion originally from Chapel Hill, N.C. was killed when the helicopter went down around 1:30 p.m. Monday on a golf course in Leonardtown, according to U.S. Army Military District of Washington.
The pilot, Chief Warrant Officer Christopher Nicholas, and Capt. Terikazu Onoda, commander of the 12th Aviation Battalion’s Charlie Company, were in critical condition late Tuesday at the University of Maryland R. Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center in Baltimore, the Army said.
The cause of the training flight crash was still being investigated by a team from the Army Combat Readiness Center in Alabama, which arrived at the scene on Tuesday afternoon.
