President Donald Trump, along with Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and First Lady Melania Trump attended the dignified transfer for the six U.S. soldiers who were killed in Kuwait.
On Saturday in Dover, Delaware, the president attended a solemn ceremony as their remains were returned to U.S. soil.
There was no audio in the video feed out of respect for the fallen service members. Family members were also in attendance, but media ground rules strictly prohibited filming or photographing them to protect their privacy and honor their grief.
