Two more Canadian casualties

Two Canadian soldiers have been killed along with a coalition soldier in a helicopter crash in Afghanistan.

The Canadians have been identified as 38-year-old Master Cpl. Pat Audet and 25-year-old Cpl. Martin Joannette.

Military officials say the incident at an American base in Zabul province, about 80 kilometres northeast of Kandahar, was not related to insurgent activity.
They will be remembered.
