You guys are pushing weak S these days. The V-22 off Okinawa was damaged by what is reported to be a refueling hose/receptical into a rotor. Though damaged the ship continued to fly and was purposely ditched to avoid flying over populated area. No aircraft fault and the V-22 probably survived the strike better than any helicopter would taking such a piece of hardware into the main or tail rotors.
As to Yemen I have not seen a cause, but whatever it was it was not the national embarresment of the 53's in Cambodia and Desert One, or the 60's in Grenada.
