It does sound like an artillery incident at this time. Prayers for our soldiers.

An artillery shell impacting “out of safe” or a fatal mistake while handling live explosives and primers practicing demolition. And I recall a training cycle to Hohenfels with when our M-88 recovery vehicle skidded off a tank trail and down a hill, flipping over and killing the vehicle commander and one of the mechanics.
