A somber ritual took place late on March 9, as the remains of the seventh US service member killed in the ongoing conflict with Iran were returned to American soil. The footage shows a US Army carry team performing a dignified transfer, moving the flag-draped case from a military transport aircraft. The fallen soldier has been identified by the Pentagon as Sgt. Benjamin N. Pennington, 26, of Glendale, Kentucky. Sgt. Pennington, a member of the 1st Space Brigade, died on Sunday from injuries sustained during an Iranian missile strike on a military base in Saudi Arabia on March 1.
