Trump Promises Gold Star Dad He Will Start ‘Commission’ for Answers on Son’s DeathElizabeth Weibel 14 Oct 2024
Former President Donald Trump promised a Gold Star parent that during his “first week” in office, he would establish a “commission” to find answers regarding his son’s death.
During his town hall event in Pennsylvania on Monday, Charles and Mary Strange, who lost their son Navy Petty Officer First Class Michael Strange on August 6, 2011, asked Trump for a “congressional hearing” regarding their son’s death, noting that they “still haven’t gotten any answers.”
Michael Strange was killed along with “29 other” U.S. service members and “eight Afghan security forces,” during a mission “southwest” of Kabul, Afghanistan, after “Taliban fighters shot down their helicopter,” according to the Philadelphia Inquirer.
The outlet noted that Michael Strange had been “part of the elite Navy SEAL Team 6, the unit responsible for killing Osama bin Laden”:
Michael was a cryptologist and part of the elite Navy SEAL Team 6, the unit responsible for killing Osama bin Laden. At his core, though, we has a Wissinoming native, a graduate of North Catholic High School, and a “Philly boy” through-and-through.
