EIGHT people were discharged from Dorset County Hospital following a fatal road crash at Bovington, police said.
The people, including a woman six months pregnant, were in a Ford Transit mini bus that was in collision with a red Ford Escort LX at Tout Hill.
The mini bus was carrying nine Army personnel from Bovington camp and one person remained in hospital for observation on Thursday night, the spokesman said.
He added that the Escort, registered to a woman from Melksham in Wiltshire, was being driven by an 18-year-old man with a 17-year-old female passenger, both from Wiltshire, who both died at the scene.
The spokesman said the minibus was a hire vehicle registered to a company in Uxbridge, Middlesex.
It took accident investigators seven hours to investigate the scene before they could reopen the C6 road between Wool and Bere Regis, he added.
Further details about vehicles involved in another collision at the Shipton Gorge junction on the A35 were also released by police.
A police spokesman said a mother and child needed hospital treatment after being cut free from the green Toyota Rav 4 estate they were travelling in, which is registered to a Dorchester woman.
Other vehicles involved in the collision were a silver Volkswagen Polo, registered to a Dorchester woman, from which two people also had to be cut free, and a blue Honda Jazz, registered to an Exeter woman.
Anyone with information about either collision should contact Dorset Police on 01305 222222.
