Alabama & Today's Plane/Chopper Crash in D.C.

 A Team from the Alabama based U.S. Army Combat Readiness Center is likely already on site from their Ft. Novosel (Formerly Ft. Rucker) comand center. A major article about the center was published recently by The Army Times.

As of this morning it appears there were no survivors among 67 people that made up the crews and passengers on the two aircraft.

HERE is a link to this morning's N.Y. Times story.

"Figure skaters, their family members and their coaches were among those onboard the plane, according to U.S. Figure Skating, the American governing body for the sport. They were returning from a training camp that followed the national figure skating championships, which were held in Wichita, Kan., over the weekend."
