Two United States Army soldiers were killed and a dozen injured after a military transport truck they were traveling in was involved in a single-vehicle accident near Fairbanks, Alaska, on Monday.
The Light Medium Tactical Vehicle was transporting 17 soldiers of the 11th Airborne Division from Fort Wainwright to the Yukon Training Area near Salcha, Alaska, when it skidded and flipped, John Pennell, a U.S. Army Alaska spokesman, told Stars and Stripes.
No other vehicles were involved in the crash.
My heart is with the entire 11th Airborne Division and families of the soldiers who passed away during a training exercise outside of Salcha.
