The June 22 crash occurred during a training exercise and is being investigated.
Four U.S. Coast Guard crew members have been declared safe following a helicopter crash.
Authorities said in a press release that the Coast Guard MH-60 Jayhawk helicopter aircrew from Coast Guard Air Station Sitka crashed Monday during a training flight with four people aboard near Harbor Mountain in Sitka, Alaska. Watch standers at the Arctic District command center received the initial report of the crash at approximately 10:07 a.m. through the activation of the aircrew’s personal locator beacon.
Sitka Fire and Rescue arrived on scene at approximately 11 a.m. and transported the crew members to Mt. Edgecumbe Medical Center, where they were treated for minor, non-serious injuries.
“We are incredibly relieved our crew members survived with only minor injuries,” Rear Adm. Bob Little, commander of the Coast Guard’s Arctic District, said in a statement on Monday. “We are grateful for the swift response by the Sitka Fire and Rescue who assisted us during this critical time.”
Military.com reached out to the Coast Guard for more information regarding what injuries were sustained, and what led to the helicopter going down in the first place. The condition of the Jayhawk remains unknown.
Coast Guard Air Station Kodiak is repositioning a helicopter and crews to Coast Guard Air Station Sitka to augment and maintain operational readiness in the Southeast Alaska region, officials said.
The Coast Guard said the incident remains under investigation.

The cost guidance is better than expected. If they deliver, the stock could rerate.

I like the balance sheet here—less leverage than peers.
Production mix shifting toward USA might help margins if metals stay firm.
