It was terribly sad news to learn that the two CH-53E helicopters each carrying six crew members disappeared from radar on Jan. 14 SFC Joe S. Davis Jr., MSM, DSL. I am thankful that within hours a Coast Guard helicopter and C-130 airplane spotted debris 2 1/2 miles off of Oahu.
Lord Jesus, I lift up the family members and close friends of each of the following Marines and pray that you will comfort them in their time of grief:
Maj. Shawn M. Campbell, 41, College Station, Texas.
Capt. Brian T. Kennedy, 31, Philadelphia.
Capt. Kevin T. Roche, 30, St. Louis.
Capt. Steven R. Torbert, 29, Florence, Alabama.
Sgt. Dillon J. Semolina, 24, Chaska, Minnesota.
Sgt. Adam C. Schoeller, 25, Gardners, Pennsylvania.
Sgt. Jeffrey A. Sempler, 22, Woodruff, South Carolina.
Sgt. William J. Turner, 25, Florala, Alabama.
Cpl. Matthew R. Drown, 23, Spring, Texas.
Cpl. Thomas J. Jardas, 22, Fort Myers, Florida.
Cpl. Christopher J. Orlando, 23, Hingham, Massachusetts.

SPC Margaret Higgins I guess, we will ever know how the accident happen or the recovery of the Marines. Indeed tragic. My prayers go out to their families.
