This weekend Echo company (my company) did a weapons familiarization drill with the 240gulf and m249, both machine guns. Echo (minus) drove from Tallahassee, to meet its sister company Echo (plus) the training went well no one was injured too bad. Well today on the way out we (Tallahassee) waited for Bessemer's, they are based out of Alabama, (Echo +) buses to arrive. Bessemer's buses showed up and we left on our two charter buses, on our way out after we got off base (Ft. Rucker near Enterprise Alabama) a few miles down the road a good amount of emergency vehicles passed us heading to base. We didn't think a thing of it, no way to know what happened. Turns out the buss was taking a turn another car came into its lane and the driver may have over corrected flipping the buss several times down the side of a hill with many marines with m16's on board. If anyone finds anything on the news or the web about this please pm me the link. The accident is still considered "classified" as of right now but by the time most of you read this it should be all over the news.
So please send your prayers and positive vibes to the several Marines that were life flighted from the wreck.


Thanks
