Two airmen will posthumously receive the Distinguished Flying Cross nearly 14 years after the CV-22 Osprey they were flying crashed in Afghanistan.
Officer Bryan Andrew Zemek, 36, and Officer Derek Joshua Abbott, 42, were both Mississippi natives and had won several awards for their service.
The obituary of Capt. Jack Casey hinted at a jokester who was never too busy to help.
NBC News reported Monday that the crash was linked to chipping from the Osprey’s proprotor gearbox.
