Two soldiers from Fort Benning have died and three others were injured in a weather-related event in northern Georgia, an official said Tuesday.
The incident took place at Yonah Mountain, located near Dahlonega, a spokesperson for the Army’s Maneuver Center of Excellence and Fort Benning Public Affairs Office said in a statement.
The three injured soldiers were treated by an Army medic on the scene before being transferred to a local hospital, the spokesperson said, where they remain under the care of hospital staff.
