Vice President JD Vance joined the grieving family of a Kentucky man who was the seventh U.S. service member to die in combat during the Iran war as his remains were brought back to the U.S. The dignified transfer took place at Dover Air Force Base in Delaware Monday evening. The Pentagon says 26-year-old Army Sgt. Benjamin N. Pennington of Glendale died Sunday after being wounded during a March 1 attack on the Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi Arabia. Officials previously announced six Army reservists were killed in Kuwait when an Iranian drone struck an operations center at a civilian port.
