Baghdad, Iraq (CNN) — Two U.S. Army pilots died Sunday in a helicopter accident in Iraq, the military said.

The pilots’ aircraft “made a hard landing” inside Contingency Operating Base Speicher in northern Iraq, according to a military statement. “There were no enemy forces present and no hostile fire was reported.”

The soldiers were assigned to Task Force Marne, which is responsible for U.S. operations in northern Iraq. The location of the base and the soldiers’ identities were withheld pending family notification.

Greetings!

I apologize for the confusion that I might have caused when I posted the article in Facebook…it wound up being an OH-58D helicopter that crashed on COB Speicher in Iraq.
