Nearly 150 local soldiers could head overseas.

The Indiana National Guard notified members of the Elkhart-based 1538th transportation unit to prepare for deployment.

The Army isn't saying where or when they'll be deployed.

Forty-one members of that unit returned home last February after serving in Kuwait and Iraq.

Right now, the National Guard isn't sure if any of those members will have to serve again.
