ADJOURN IN MEMORY OF THE 5 MARINES KILLED IN AN MV-22B OSPREY CRASH We are heartbroken about the tragic news of the helicopter accident that occurred last week. If you have not seen it, an Osprey tiltrotor aircraft went down during a training exercise and the crash resulted in the loss of five Marines. We have learned over the past days that these Marines were from VMM Squadron 364 at Camp Pendleton, also known as the "Purple Foxes," which has been a part of the Tustin family for many years. The Tustin community is proud of its rich military heritage and as testament to that appreciation, the City ceremoniously adopted two Marine Squadrons with ties to the former MCAS Tustin. One of those squadrons was the "Purple Foxes" VMM Squadron 364, who formed at the former MCAS Tustin in 1961, before ultimately relocating to Camp Pendleton. On behalf of our entire community, as the Mayor of Tustin, I'd like to express our deepest condolences as we all mourn the loss of five Marines from the "Purple Foxes" Squadron 364: * Corporal Nathan E. Carlson, 21, a Tiltrotor crew chief * Captain Nicholas P. Losapio, 31, an MV-22B pilot * Corporal Seth D. Rasmuson, 21, a Tiltrotor crew chief * Captain John J. Sax, 33, an MV-22B pilot. * Lance Corporal Evan A. Strickland, 19, a Tiltrotor crew chief May God bless these Marines for their honorable service and provide peace to their families.
