Why this matters in The Minneapolis
Minneapolis residents with ties to the military may be particularly moved by President Trump's attendance at the dignified transfer of the four US service members killed in the Middle East. As a community with a strong sense of patriotism and support for those in uniform, the city's residents are likely to be somberly reflective on the sacrifices made by these troops and their families. The fact that 18 US service members have been killed since the war began on February 28 will likely resonate deeply with local veterans' groups and military families, who may be wondering about the impact of the ongoing conflict on their loved ones serving overseas. As the city observes the dignified transfer from afar, Minneapolis residents may also be thinking about the ways in which they can support local military families and honor the memories of those who have made the ultimate sacrifice.
