An open letter to the leaders of Marine aviation

By: Col. Tom Hewes (Retired)   14 hours ago


The story of the midair collision ­between an F/A-18D and KC-130J on Dec. 6, 2018, as reported by the ­Marine Corps Times in September is now out for the entire world to see.

It is, sadly, a damning indictment of the leadership at every level of Marine aviation.

I cannot claim to speak for all who were the leaders of prior years, but I firmly believe this tragedy indicates that the current generation of aviation leaders have failed their Marines. And that, gentlemen, is neither the example nor the lesson those of us who were leaders in prior years passed on.
