Two Fort Wainwright soldiers are undergoing treatment for injuries they sustained Sunday when their Army attack helicopter crashed at the Talkeetna airport during a training flight.
The soldiers, with the 25th Attack Battalion, were transported from the scene to area medical facilities for treatment, according to a Monday statement from the Army’s 11th Airborne Division. One of the soldiers was flown to a hospital and the other was taken by ambulance.
A division spokesperson says the AH-64 Apache helicopter was one of four that were taking part in the training.
The spokesperson said the crash will be investigated by a team from the Army Combat Readiness Center at Fort Rucker, Ala.
