It was the deadliest day for U.S. Marines since Iwo Jima. Today is a reminder to not only honor those troops who paid the ultimate sacrifice for America, but to never forget that there are forces which will harm and kill Americans at any opportunity.” ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T00:49:26Z |
