Marine 'pursued a dream to fly'
After college, Nathanael Doring followed his dreams of
flying and landed in the Marines, where the 31-year-old
Apple Valley, Minn., man met the second love of his life:
his wife. The two served as captains in Iraq, and in April,
he extended his second tour of duty so he could return
to the U.S. this summer, shortly before she would.
Nathanael Doring, who flew attack helicopters with the
Marines, died this past weekend when his AH-1 Cobra crashed
into a deep lake about 45 miles west of Baghdad. |
Searchers recovered his body from the cockpit Monday,
along with that of a 25-year-old corporal, and their families
were notified of their deaths. The accident happened during
a routine maintenance test flight near an airbase and was
not combat related, according to the military.
The cause of the crash is still undetermined, Doring's
family said.
