On Monday evening, the bodies of another American military man who had been killed in the continuing war
with Iran were brought back to the United States during a solemn ceremony of military transfer
in one of the large Air Force bases in Delaware.
The dead soldier was a 26-year-old Kentuckyan who joined the list of the seven U.S. military personnel killed in the war.
The military officials said that the soldier was killed when he sustained serious injuries in an assault
by the Iranian forces on a U.S. military base in Saudi Arabia last week.
He was attached to a professional military team that takes care of the space and missile defense missions in the Army.

The funeral of the fallen service member was according to the traditional in military tradition
with the ceremonial transfer case being carried across the runway by uniformed staff and senior government
and defense leaders being present standing and silent in salute.
The state leaders of the country where the soldier lived presented him as a hero who sacrificed his life in the service of his country.
The military leaders were also honored with respect of making tribute and included how the sacrifice would always be remembered by his fellow soldiers and by the nation he sacrificed.
The soldier enlisted in the Army in 2017 and served in the field of logistics and supply support in his unit.
Officials affirmed that he will get a promotion upon his death in case of his service and sacrifice.
People living in the neighbourhood in which he lived showed great grief after the news.
School administrations in the area observed that he embodied the principles of hard work, service and love to the country.
Flags in his home county were lowered half-staff in his honor.
He came back to the United States soon after another ceremony was done on another 6 soldiers who had
been killed in another drone attack on a U.S. military operations center in Kuwait.
Those were soldiers of a reserve support force.
National leaders who were present in the previous ceremony added that the families of the fallen soldiers
requested them to carry on with the war effort regardless of the casualties.
Nevertheless, even authorities have admitted that more citizens of the state can be killed as military
interventions against Iran proceed.
Although the president was absent in the last transfer ceremony, top officials have threatened that the reality of war implies that more soldiers would die before the war concludes.
The dignified transfer ceremonies, which are the Delaware air base, is one of the traditional means
which the U.S. military has used to honor those who are killed abroad so that their remains can be properly taken back to the American soil.
