Not many details at the moment, but it sounds pretty nasty. From the BBC:

Up to 20 military personnel have been injured in a collision between troop carriers on Salisbury Plain, Wiltshire Police have said.
Two people with life-threatening injuries have been flown to Southampton General Hospital and eight people with "serious injuries" to Salisbury, South West Ambulance said.
The two-vehicle collision happened in a field near Westdown Camp at 18:30 BST.
Three military ambulances are at the location.
