LT Serena Wileman will come home to Oak Harbor on Monday, Nov. 4, at approximately 7:00 p.m. Wallin-Stucky Funeral Home will release details on LT Wileman’s procession and provide information on public involvement for those who wish to gather along the route in support of LT Wileman’s return.

LCDR Lyndsay Evans will return home to Anacortes on a later date during the week. As per her family’s wishes, LCDR Evans’ arrival will be a private affair.

The families of both LT Wileman and LCDR Evans wish to express their gratitude for the gracious support from the local and surrounding communities these past weeks.

Well guys, SIR was released officially a few days ago (though we got a read-in many months ago). And growler golf is this Friday, which was the last place I saw either of them alive a year ago, and another member of the flight who didn't die. I go by that golf course every time I drive to work Navy, and I haven't passed view of that particular hole without thinking about them since. That'll be a tough part of the course, for sure. Just under a month from a year ago.

Pretty interesting analysis from Mover. Will be interesting to see what Gonky thinks as he's an F18 Navy guy. Can't imagine flying around the Cascades in crappy weather at 450K.

I think Mover flew F-18s in the Navy reserve as well, not Growlers though. He seems like a fairly accomplished weirdo, he walked away from a right seat 787 job at a major US airline. A job that many here would likely do illegal things to get and he just wasn't happy so he quit. I'm aware 121 flying isn't sunshine and rainbows 24/7 but at least he made room for someone else who does actually want the job?

I'll just say this. Nobody knows who "mover" or "gonky" were. They were nobodies. Now have apparently convinced a bunch of people they are in the know. They were no-load dumb •s who sucked at their jobs and were shown the door. I wouldn't take anything they say as being anything informative. I wish these disgraces to the profession would go away and shut their mouths for the sake of everyone else
