A Marine aircraft has crashed every month since July

via Marine Times.

Constant operations, budget cuts, delays in procuring new aircraft and other factors have all pushed Marine aviation into a crisis. A Marine aircraft has crashed every month since July, when a KC-130T crashed in Mississippi, killing 15 Marines and one sailor — the deadliest crash for Marine aviation since 2005. All 12 of the Corps’ KC-130Ts have remained grounded pending the crash investigation.

The following month, Marine Corps Commandant Gen. Robert Neller ordered all squadrons to suspend flight operations for 24 hours after an MV-22B Osprey crashed off Australia, killing three Marines.

Excuses are irrelevant.

Don't tell the American people what you can't do with the resources you have, either manage it or you inform policy makers that the current pace of operations is too much.

If it is funding (and I seriously doubt that) then you make that clear and scale back operations to a level that meets the available monies.

If it is delays in procuring new aircraft/other factors then you deal with the reality of the situation and you adjust.

But giving an excuse of constant operations, budget cuts, delays in procurement of new aircraft and other factors is pure bullshit.

Children give excuses.  Marines get it the fuck done.
