US officials said, that the death of the commander of the SEAL team during an exercise last December was due to several main reasons.
They included communication problems inside the helicopter., early rope release, on which commander Brian Bourgeois was supposed to descend to the area of a combat training operation, and lack of proper communication between crew and ground forces. All these circumstances, to a greater or lesser extent, caused the tragedy..
43-the summer Bourgeois was mortally injured 4 December 2021 of the year during a speed training session of the Joint Special Operations Command in Virginia Beach, Virginia. Decorated Combat Veteran and SEAL Team Commander 8 fell from about 12 meters from an army Black Hawk helicopter and died from his injuries 7 December 2021 of the year.
New details of, what led to the death of Bourgeois, were released Thursday by the US Army Special Operations Command, or USASOC, who took the lead in the investigation, because the crashed helicopter belonged to the 160th Special Operations Army Aviation Regiment.
The army has yet to release its investigation into the fatal incident., it is currently being tested. Nevertheless, the incident has already led to several reforms in the USASO. This was indicated in his letter by the representative of the command, Lieutenant Colonel Michael Burns..
The US Army Special Operations Command has taken several steps to prevent similar events in the future., including already rewritten several procedures. The new requirements guarantee, what like crews, and partner ground forces will take appropriate steps to ensure clear communications, and safety remains a top priority for everyone, Burns said.
