About

Sgt. 1st Class Nicole Amor, 39, of White Bear Lake, Minnesota, was a U.S. Army Reserve soldier. She is newsworthy because she was one of six U.S. service members killed in a drone strike on a U.S. base in Kuwait. This attack occurred during the ongoing U.S.-Israeli military campaign against Iran in March 2026. The Pentagon released her name, along with others, after the attack. President Trump joined the families of the slain soldiers at Dover Air Force Base for the dignified transfer of their remains. News articles highlight the soldiers' service and devotion to their families. The incident underscores the human cost of the escalating conflict in the Middle East and the risks faced by U.S. military personnel involved in the operation against Iran.
