Navy Identifies Missing Commander After Suspending Arabian Sea Search Operation
The U.S. Navy identified Cmdr. Gabriel Edwards as the sailor lost at sea after an MH-60S Seahawk helicopter made an emergency water landing in the Arabian Sea. Navy officials identified the squadron commander on July 8 following the crash during flight operations from the USS George H.W. Bush. The military suspended the search for the missing sailor after a massive effort to locate him proved unsuccessful.
The search lasted for 102 hours before the Navy ended the rescue operation on July 5. After notifying the family, the Navy released the name of the pilot who went missing during the incident. This conclusion of the search for the sailor marks the end of active recovery efforts for the crew member lost during the mission.
