Stand downs happen after accidents. There have been several in the last year alone. You left out that is for Marine F-35 units not the entire military.
WILLIAMSBURG COUNTY, S.C. (WCSC) - Joint Base Charleston confirmed Monday night that found a debris field now believed to be the site of an F-35 crash two hours northeast of the base.
The base did not provide a specific area within Williamsburg County where the debris field was spotted, but asked members of the community to avoid the area as the recovery team secured the debris field.
Joint Base Charleston said it was transferring incident command to the U.S. Marine Corps as they begin the recovery process.
Florence County Sheriff T.J. Joye could not provide information on exactly where the parts were found, but Bartells Road in Indiantown, which is near Hemingway, is blocked off, WMBF reported.

I’m not. You’re talking about an aircraft that is about 50 feet long, that probably flew until it ran out of fuel so there was no post impact fire. That’s not an easy find with only a “last seen heading north” lead.
