Ten more U.S. soldiers with battlefield wounds were flown to Germany Saturday for treatment at a military hospital.

The soldiers arrived at the Ramstein Air Base in western Germany on board a C-141 transport plane, along with 12 others suffering from non-combat injuries, said Master Sgt. Jon Hanson, a spokesman for 86th Airlift Wing, based at Ramstein.

They were taken by bus to the nearby Landstuhl Regional Medical Center.

The military did not release the soldiers' identities or any other details.

A total of 81 soldiers from the Iraq war were being treated at Landstuhl, 33 of them with battle wounds.
