Josh Turek Releases Statement on American Casualties in Iran

Des Moines, IA – In response to American causalities in Iran, Josh Turek released the following statement:

“My heart is with the family of Declan Coady, the brave Iowan killed by Iranian forces, and the other soldiers from 103rd Sustainment Command based in Des Moines.

“Those who have a family member deployed in a war zone fear that they could one day get that knock at the door, and that has now tragically and sadly become real for this family. And it serves as a reminder of the gravity of the sacrifices and risks we ask of the men and women who sign up to serve their country.

“Today, I’m mourning with his community, and honoring Declan’s heroic sacrifice.”
