The Canadian Armed Forces have confirmed the identities of the six crew members who were on board the military helicopter that crashed during a NATO training exercise off the coast of Greece.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said that one body has been recovered and five others are missing during his daily briefing in Ottawa yesterday. "All of them are heroes. Each of them will leave a void that cannot be filled," Trudeau said.
The death of one sailor, Sub-Lt. Abbigail Cowbrough of Nova Scotia was confirmed.
The identities of the five missing crew members were also confirmed:
- Capt. Brenden Ian MacDonald from New Glasgow, N.S.
- Capt. Kevin Hagen from Nanaimo, B.C.
- Capt. Maxime Miron-Morin, from Trois-Rivieres, Que.
- Sub-Lt. Matthew Pyke from Truro, N.S.
- Master Cpl. Matthew Cousins from Guelph, Ont.
Military members on HMCS Fredericton, along with NATO allies, are continuing to search for the missing five members of the helicopter's crew.
The voice and data recorders that broke away from the helicopter during the crash have been recovered and will be transported back to Canada for the investigation.
