Donald Trump’s behavior at a dignified troop transfer this week was “just pathetic,” a Democrat and Army veteran has said.
Pat Ryan, a New York congressman whose awards for his two combat tours in Iraq as a military intelligence officer include a pair of Bronze Star Medals, criticized Trump’s posture during the ceremony for the four troops who died over the past week in his war against Iran.
The soldiers killed were Army 1st Lt Tyler James Feehan, 25, Sgt. Angel S. Rampersad, 28, Pvt. Isabella Gonzales, 19, and Sgt. Michael Emmanuel Swinton, 30. A total of 18 U.S. service members have died since late February, when Trump began the war that he said would only last a few weeks.
