9 US soldiers were killed after two helicopters crashed in southwestern Kentucky on Wednesday, a US Army official says. There were no survivors.
The two HH-60 Blackhawk helicopters crashed around 10 p.m. in Trigg County near the Tennessee border, officials at nearby Fort Campbell said early Thursday. They were taking part “in a routine training mission when the incident occurred,” the base said in a statement on Facebook. The helicopters were medical evacuation aircraft, and it’s believed the crash happened while they were flying and not during a medical evacuation drill, Brig. Gen.
“We’re going to wrap our arms around these families, and we’re going to be there with them, not just for the days but the weeks and months and years to come.” A military investigative team from Fort Rucker in Alabama will travel to the crash site and look into the cause, Lubas said. The crash comes less than two months after two Tennessee National Guardsmen were killed when their UH-60 Blackhawk crashed during a training flight in Alabama.
