The remains of 13 American heroes are to be returned to Dover Air Force Base, Delaware.
Eleven US Marines, a Navy corpsman, a US Army Soldier, and at least 160 Afghans were murdered by an Islamist suicide bomber in Kabul on Thursday. This from thegatewaypundit.com.
These 13 members of the Marines, Navy, and Army were killed by a suicide bomber outside the Kabul Airport.
‘The remains of the 13 individuals who were killed are on their way back to the United States, but I am not at liberty to give you their precise arrival,’ Pentagon spokesman John Kirby said on Saturday.
Kirby declined to confirm whether Biden would attend the dignified transfer at the base in Delaware, his home state, which is the domestic intake point for US military fatalities abroad.
When asked on Friday if Biden would be present at Dover, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said: ‘he would consider and want to be a part of any means of honoring the lives that were lost.’
Opinions Def-Con News readers? I have mixed feelings about whether the Pretender in Chief will or should be at Dover AFB to meet the aircraft.
A more appropriate leader, I believe, to meet the service men and women’s remains would be President Trump.
