20-year-old Sgt. Declan J. Coady died in the line of duty after an Iranian strike hit a U.S. facility in Port Shuaiba, Kuwait on March 1, 2026. He served in the Army Reserve since 2023. Sgt. Coady served with the 103rd Sustainment Command, a unit responsible for providing food, fuel, water, ammunition, transportation equipment, and supplies. Five other U.S. service members also lost their lives in the strike in Kuwait.

Sgt. Coady was born in West Des Moines, lowa. He was a sophomore pursuing an Information Technology undergraduate degree at Drake University. In a statement with the Associated Press, his father Andrew Coady said his son told him last week he had been recommended for a promotion from specialist to sergeant, a rank he received posthumously. With tears in her eyes, his sister Keira Coady said, "It's just really hard... I just really wish I got to tell him I love him one more time because he was just so amazing and kind."

Sgt. Coady was also an Eagle Scout with Troop 242. And for his Eagle Scout project, he decided to help others by serving the lowa Homeless Youth Centers. A confirmed GoFundMe page was created by Sgt.

Coady's aunt, Marianne Crandall, to support the Coady family during this difficult time.

In a statement, Marianne said, "Declan was more than a soldier. He was a son, a family member, a friend, and a light in the lives of those who knew him. He served his country with honor, courage, and dedication, embodying the very best of what it means to wear the uniform." Please pray for the Coady family. Sgt. Coady, you did all you could do.

Now, it's time to rest.

πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸ™πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ Roscoe Robinson Jr. did not inherit opportunity. He forced it open.

In 1947, he entered the United States Military Academy at West Point. Out of 600 cadets, only 5 were Black. The pressure was constant. The scrutiny relentless. Failure would not just be personal. It would be amplified.

He graduated.

Then came Korea.

As commander of Company C, 1st Battalion, 31st Infantry, he led between 175 and 240 soldiers in repeated combat operations. The fighting was brutal. Terrain unforgiving.

Leadership meant standing where the fire was heaviest.

He proved himself under it.

Vietnam followed. More responsibility. More command. In 1976, he became the first Black officer to command the 82nd Airborne Division. That was not symbolic. That was combat power under his authority.

In 1982, he reached 4 stars.

The first Black four star general in U.S. Army history.

He served as the U.S. Military Representative to NATO's Military Committee until retiring in 1985.

He died in 1993 at 64.

But his impact did not.

West Point named an auditorium in his honor.

Fort Bragg named a health clinic after him.

More importantly, doors that were once sealed opened wider for those behind him.

He did not shout about barriers.

He broke them.
And he did it in uniform.

Story based on historical records.

A US Marine Corps veteran and Iraq War veteran, identified as 44-year-old Brian McGinnis, was arrested at the Capitol on March 4th after disrupting a Senate hearing.

McGinnis stood up during the proceedings and shouted, "America does not want to send its sons and daughters to war for Israel!" He also called out, "No one wants to fight for Israel," and "Israel is the reason for this war".

Police reports indicate he physically resisted officers as they attempted to es**rt him from the chamber, and his arm was injured during the removal. He now faces charges including assault on a police officer and resisting arrest, with court proceedings pending.
