February 15, 2002 BRAWLEY – Two Camp Pendleton Marines were killed in a military helicopter crash in the Chocolate Mountain Range, the second fatal accident during training for Marines from the base in less than two weeks, officials said Friday. A UH-1N Huey helicopter went down about 11 p.m. Thursday just west of Mount Barrow, near the California-Arizona border, said Capt. Tanya Murnock of the Marine Corps Air Station in Yuma, Ariz. Two Marines were injured in the crash, the cause of which was under investigation. Officials from Camp Pendleton identified the dead as the pilot, Capt. Theodore S. Treadwell, 29, of Phoenix, and Staff Sgt. Roderick D. Nesmith, 30, of Cortez, Colo., the aircraft's crew chief
February 18, 2002 TWENTYNINE PALMS – A two-seat fighter jet from South Carolina crashed during landing Sunday at the Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center, killing one Marine and injuring another, a Marine Corps spokeswoman said. It was the third deadly training accident in California in 12 days. The crash took place shortly after 2 p.m. at the combat center's airfield, said Capt. Teresa Ovalle. Both the pilot and weapon systems officer ejected from the F/A-18D Hornet from Marine Corps Air Station, Beaufort, S.C., she said.
Capt. James B. Blackmon Jr., 32, died of a heart attack at 5:50 p.m. at Desert Regional Medical Center in Palm Springs after suffering injuries to his head and internal organs, said Stephanie D. Stratton, an administrative nursing supervisor. Blackmon, a native of Lexington, Ky., was a weapon systems officer with Marine All-Weather Fighter Attack Squadron 533.
