A total of 314 U.S. military personnel were on board the Atlas Air flight from Topeka, Kansas to Poland.
There were reports that smoke was spotted in the cargo hold of the 747.
But on Tuesday, Atlas Air reported,"Upon further investigation, our team has confirmed that this was a false warning, and the aircraft will return to service." The Fort Riley base troops recently left the base and were heading to Europe. It is not clear what their exact mission was - but we know once the smoke was spotted in the cargo, the 314 soldiers landed in Chicago and evacuated the plane.
