At least two Marines were killed and two were flown to the hospital after a 7-ton truck with the 2nd Marine Logistics Group rolled over on the highway outside of Camp Lejeune, North Carolina.

The vehicle was carrying 19 Marines “to and from training locations” at the base as part of normal operations, 1st Lt. Kevin P. Stapleton, a 2nd MLG spokesman, told Marine Corps in a Thursday morning phone call.

During the rollover 17 Marines were ejected from the back of the vehicle.
