Centcom Confirms Death of All Six Crew Members on KC-135 That Went Down in Iraq, What We Know
U.S. military says crash not caused by ‘hostile fire’ even as Iran-backed group claims responsibility.
Six crew members were killed when a U.S. refuelling tanker crashed in Iraq, U.S. Central Command has confirmed.
Centcom reported that a KC-135 Stratotanker came down Thursday during Operation Epic Fury - the growing conflict between the U.S. and Iran that was launched by President Donald Trump at the end of February.
The military said on Friday afternoon that all six crew members on board the plane were killed in the incident. They have not been named.
At least 13 U.S. service members have now been killed since the war started two weeks ago, while around 140 have been wounded….
Centcom stressed in its initial statement on Thursday the plane did not go down as a result of either hostile or friendly fire…
The Islamic Resistance in Iraq, an umbrella group of armed factions backed by Iran, meanwhile claimed responsibility for downing the aircraft.
The group said in a statement it had shot down the aircraft “in defence of our country’s sovereignty and airspace”, contradicting the U.S. version of events….
This is the fourth U.S. manned aircraft lost since Operation Epic Fury started…

Dozens of U.S. Service Members Suffered Serious Injuries in Retaliatory Drone Attack
An Iranian drone attack in Kuwait that killed six U.S. service members in the early hours of the war with Iran was more severe than has previously been revealed, with dozens suffering injuries including brain trauma, shrapnel wounds and burns, multiple sources told CBS News. At least one may require the amputation of a limb….
More than 30 military members remained in hospitals Tuesday night with battle injuries…
Of those, about 20 arrived on a C-17 military transport aircraft at Landstuhl on Tuesday with injuries the military designated as “urgent” and requiring evacuation, including traumatic brain injuries, memory loss and concussions, three of the sources said. …
Two of the service members were missing after the attack and were later found under the rubble, sources said. …
The military defines a serious injury as one that “requires medical attention, and competent medical authority declares that death is possible but not likely to occur within 72 hours.”

9th March 1649 James Hamilton, the 1st duke of Hamilton was beheaded in London.
The first Duke of Hamilton was created in 1643. James Hamilton, then Earl of Arran, was ennobled for services to Charles I. An influential military leader during the Thirty Years’ War, he returned as Charles’ principal Scottish adviser when the conflict ended.
But life was not always kind to the first Duke of Hamilton. He commanded forces in Scotland during the Wars of the Three Kingdoms, facing opposition from his own mother. Anne, Marchioness of Hamilton, was a colonel in the opposing Army of the Covenanters; she threatened to shoot James dead in 1639. Five years later, Charles I imprisoned the Duke in Pendennis Castle, riled by his growing misconduct and inaction during negotiations with the Covenanters.
Finally freed in 1646, James met his end only three short years later. Leading a campaign to rescue Charles I from Oliver Cromwell’s forces in 1648, he was defeated and captured at the Battle of Preston. His forces had outnumbered Cromwell’s 24,000 to 9,000.
James was decapitated on this day, 1649, tried and condemned as a traitor

Some soldiers are really just human beings, just like me and you and especially resistance fighters.
