‘As part of his Thanksgiving call to US troops, Mr Trump said that he had learned that Specialist Sarah Beckstrom, 20, had died, while Staff Sergeant Andrew Wolfe, 24, was “fighting for his life”
“She's just passed away,” Mr Trump said. “She's no longer with us. She's looking down at us right now. Her parents are with her”
The president called Ms Beckstrom an “incredible person, outstanding in every single way’.
