The Department of Defense has identified the two remaining crewmen who perished in the crash of a UH60 Black Hawk Helicopter in Tikrit, Iraq. As always, ANN sends our respects and prayers to the families and friends of these brave soldiers, who were lost in the support of Operation Iraqi Freedom.

There were six soldiers killed in action on board the helicopter. The names of four soldiers killed in the incident were previously announced on Nov. 9.
