The Pentagon has reported that 3 US service members were killed from gunfire. One member was killed on the scene and two died later from injuries at a hospital. The terrible event occured when their car reached a gate at King Faisal military base in Jordan. Military officials and Peter Cook, secretary of press of the Pentagon have stated that the service members were kill by gun fire and the driver would not comply with orders causing the injury of a Jordanian Air Force officer as well. The Pentagon has state that it is working closely with the Jordan government to investigate further and offered its thoughts and prayers to the loved ones of the deceased service members.
This awful occurrence is another example of the tragedies that are likely delivered by the hands of terrorists as well as an example of the extent that US military members sacrifice for their loved ones as well as countless others. They are true heroes and hopefully the Pentagons investigation can turn up more information soon, as to find the direct cause of the dreadful deaths.
