Summary

Army Capt. Rebecca M. Lobach, a highly accomplished pilot and top 20% ROTC cadet, was among 67 killed when her Black Hawk helicopter collided with an American Airlines jet near Washington, D.C.

Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth blamed “DEI” for the crash despite no official cause being determined.

Lobach had 450+ flight hours and numerous military honors.
