The victims are named as Lieutenant Lily-Mae Fisher, 31, Lieutenant Commander Chris Gayson, 42, and Petty Officer Owen Green, 24. Fisher is described across reports as the only female serving naval commando in Britain’s Royal Navy. Multiple outlets say the crash occurred during the personnel’s last training flight, with the two other named crew members also killed in the incident.

The Daily Mail additionally publishes prior personal material and includes details about Fisher in the days before the crash, while the Daily Record focuses on the fact that Fisher was among the fatalities and that all three died during the training exercise. The reports agree on the identities, ages, the Royal Navy context, and the location and timing of the crash, while differing in the amount of background detail included about the victim.
