I'm grateful for all soldiers who serve our country, and even if it turns out the Army helicopter was the primary cause of this crash (no idea at this point), I'll still be grateful for those soldiers' service. It's not much to ask that we treat others with respect, dignity, gratitude and compassion. That's a requirement for being a decent human being.
