Marines Resume V-22 Osprey Investigation
January 15, 2002
The Pentagon has resumed an inquiry into the controversial V-22 Osprey program after receiving information that the investigation of an April 2000 Osprey crash that killed nineteen Marines was mishandled. The Pentagon's inspector general opened the investigation after the Marine Corps' commandant, General James L. Jones, received a letter from a source close to the Osprey program that claimed the previous inquiry was conducted inappropriately. The Pentagon would not release the name of the letter's author. The April 2000 crash occurred outside of Tucson, Arizona while the Osprey was attempting to land.
