Antelope Island

Operation Embryo Stage (USAF)
Operation Larkspur Raven (USA)

29 October 1992: An MH-60G Pave Hawk helicopter, carrying U.S. Army Rangers and Air Force Special-Operations troops on a joint training flight from Hill Air Force Base, crashed in 10 feet of water north of Antelope Island, near Salt Lake City, Utah. Twelve of the thirteen on board were killed.

This page is in remembrance of the soldiers of the U.S. Army and U.S. Air Force Special Operations Command who died in the service of this great nation on 10-29-92 at approximately 9:15 p.m. MST. May we remind each other that these men who died doing what they loved best will not fade away. "We will remember them, we will honor them and we will pray for them forever."
