A post on a FB site about Air crew training brought a new wave of emotions. The MFO 400R crash on 11/12/2020 is included in this years module. It caught many by surprise and I can only imagine how difficult is was for some to set through the training. This is the string of posts after a FYI alerting Army Aviation crews of the training content.
Hey Warlords –
Just a heads up – the ACT training this year has Sherman and McKee’s accident in it as a vignette. PSA so those who are still in can be more emotionally prepared then I was
We did that one here at Rucker a couple months ago, and they played the raw original audio instead of the actor recreation. Definitely got blindsided and was not prepared for that at all. Then 30 minutes later had to go fly students
Josh Hensley it caught me off guard.. I was so thankful it wasn’t the original audio though. I can’t imagine hearing that.

- Every once in awhile I run across a post or an article that definitely stops me in my tracks. It’s not easy but we push through it. I’m doing what I can to keep Kyle, Jeremy and Josh’s memory out there. I’ll never forget and I can tell from the comments that they are in your thoughts also. I’m preparing a website that will be moved to a server that I can maintain so that Kyle will be out there even if FB fades away. You can see the start of it at ssgkylermckee.com and I want to add a comment section so that you can share memories of Kyle if you like. Thanks for all that you do.
