The U.S. military is identifying the six service members who died last week when a KC-135 refueling plane crashed in western Iraq. The crew members are tied to National Guard and Air Force units in Alabama, Florida and Ohio. U.S. Central Command has said the crash happened while in “friendly” airspace as part of the war with Iran. Families are remembering their loved ones as devoted parents and steady leaders. The KC-135 refuels aircraft in midair and also supports medical evacuations and other missions.
