The two soldiers were on a training exercise on the hottest day of the year in mid Wales on Saturday.
A third soldier is seriously ill after the incident thought to involve six soldiers collapsing in hot weather.
The reservists were taking part in the selection process for the Territorial sas.

I know the beacons well. Not a good spot for any sort of weather extremes.

A damn shame and a waste.
