Key Points

This resolution honors three members of the Ohio Air National Guard who died in a plane crash in Iraq. The airmen were part of a refueling mission during Operation Epic Fury when their plane went down on March 12, 2026.
The airmen served in the 121st Air Refueling Wing, a unit based in Ohio that is known for its high level of training and safety. They were flying a KC-135 plane, which is used to refuel other military aircraft while they are still in the air.
The resolution expresses deep sympathy for the families and friends of the fallen airmen. It also recognizes the dangerous work that tanker crews do every day to keep the military running and protect the country.
