More Nevada Army National Guard soldiers are heading overseas.

The Guard held a departure ceremony Thursday in Reno for 30 aviation soldiers headed to Asia.

The 30 soldiers are the second rotation of a unit that conducts medical evacuations with UH-60 helicopters.

The first set of soldiers began their rotation in September.

The Guard says those soldiers will return to Nevada when the Department of Defense eases travel restrictions caused by the coronavirus outbreak.
