Marine Corps General Relieved of Duties After Training Accident Kills 9 Troops

  • U.S. Soldier Aaron Cox from Mabank, Texas, died on June 5, 2025, near Camp Croft, Hungary, in a vehicle rollover during training preparations.
  • Cox, a 24-year-old Infantryman with the 2nd Brigade of the 101st Airborne Division , enlisted in the Army in 2021 and was preparing for his second deployment.
  • The accident happened amid preparations for NATO's Saber Guardian 2025 exercise, and the Army confirmed Cox was critically injured, later dying from wounds sustained in the vehicle accident.
  • Col. Duke Reim, 2MBCT commander, called Cox's death a tragedy and said an investigation involving U.S. And Hungarian authorities is ongoing, with the Army thanking allied responders.
  • The incident underscores the dangers involved in multinational training exercises, as a similar event earlier in March resulted in the deaths of four U.S. Soldiers in Lithuania during efforts to recover and tow a disabled tactical vehicle.
