Osprey Nightmares: Ground This Dangerous Bird Before More Lives Are Lost
Tue Sep 10 2024
Being a young mom, trying to raise two little boys all alone after losing your husband in a tragic helicopter crash.
That's the gut-wrenching reality for Ivy Galliher, 25, whose world was shattered when her beloved SSgt Jacob "Jake" M. Galliher perished while serving in Japan aboard the infamous CV-22 Osprey aircraft. Now, as she clings to cherished memories of Jake's infectious laughter and warm bear hugs that will never embrace her again, Ivy is speaking out with a desperate plea: Ground these deadly birds before another family endures the anguish of losing their hero.
With an alarming safety record tainted by over 10 fatal accidents and countless mechanical failures, the Osprey has been grounded multiple times for safety concerns. Yet shockingly, the U. S. Marines plan to keep this untrustworthy aircraft flying until at least 2054!
Ivy argues that until the root causes of these tragedies are identified and corrected, the CV-22 must remain grounded indefinitely. She fears more families will suffer her heartbreaking fate unless action is taken.
As a military widow and mother, Ivy's powerful perspective demands to be heard. Is it too much to ask for our brave service members to fly in aircraft that won't put their lives at risk? Ground the Osprey now before we lose any more heroes.
