The Pentagon has identified the last two of six U.S. soldiers killed in a drone strike at a command center in Kuwait, with the victims hailing from California and Iowa.
In a somber announcement, the Pentagon has released the names of the final two U.S. soldiers killed in a drone strike at a command center in Kuwait. The tragic incident claimed the lives of six brave individuals, and their identities have now been made public.
The two soldiers identified on Wednesday were 55-year-old Chief Warrant Officer 3 Robert Marzan of Sacramento, California, and 45-year-old Sergeant First Class Michael Johnson of West Des Moines, Iowa. They joined four other fallen servicemembers whose names were previously announced: 37-year-old Captain Emily Thompson of Boise, Idaho; 42-year-old Major Sarah Wilson of Denver, Colorado; 28-year-old Specialist David Nguyen of San Jose, California; and 33-year-old Sergeant Liam O'Connor of Chicago, Illinois.
