> The crash is Marine's third in several weeks

Should be “the Marines’ third.” I don’t mean to be a stickler, but for a moment I thought this one pilot was crashing a plane a week!

Yep. The statement is utterly wrong and profoundly misleading as it stands.
I meant to type Marine Corps' but seem to have clipped it before saving, too late now. One pilot crashing thrice in a week would be quite the feat though!
That would be hilarious if it were the case.
