President Joe Biden honored the three U.S. service members who were killed last weekend in Jordan during the National Prayer Breakfast on Thursday.

“I spoke with each of the families separately, and [First Lady] Jill [Biden] and I will be there tomorrow at Dover Air Force Base to receive the dignified transfer of their bodies,” he said. “They’ve put their lives in harm’s way. They’ve risked it all, and I will never forget the sacrifice and service to our country of the dozens of service members who were wounded and are recovering now.”
