Joe and Jill Biden on Friday attended the dignified switch of the three US servicemembers killed in a drone assault in Jordan final weekend.
Three U.S. Servicemembers had been killed and had been 34 injured with 8 requiring to be transported to a different location for therapy. The troops had been reportedly in a tent construction sleeping once they had been attacked by a UAS, or unmanned plane system, late Saturday evening into Sunday.
The three servicemembers killed in motion had been all members of the 718th Engineer Firm, a reservist unit out of Fort Moore, Georgia.
The Pentagon released the names of three deceased servicemembers:
- Sgt. William Jerome Rivers, 46 of Carrollton, GA
- Spc. Kennedy Ladon Sanders, 24, of Waycross, GA
- Spc. Breonna Alexsondria Moffett, 23, Savannah, GA
deceased servicemembers from left to proper: Rivers, Sanders, Moffett
The US on Friday began retaliatory strikes within the Center East after three American service members had been killed in Jordan on Sunday.
In the meantime, Joe Biden was at Dover Air Pressure Base in Dover, Delaware attending the dignified switch of the three troops killed within the drone assault.
Dr. Jill made certain Joe Biden didn’t test his watch throughout the dignified switch like he did final time.
Joe Biden probably wore gloves on Friday in balmy 43-degree climate so he wouldn’t test his watch. Nearly nobody else who attended the dignified switch wore gloves (apart from Jill Biden).
Jill Biden saved a watch on Joe to verify he didn’t test his watch.
