The families of a servicemember killed in Donald Trump’s war are pleading with the president to end the conflict in Iran—the same day he was seen golfing in West Palm Beach.

The family of Tech Sgt. Tyler Simmons, 28—one of six American service members killed Thursday when an Air Force refueling aircraft crashed while supporting military operations in Iran—said they believe his death could have been prevented.

“Just the worst nightmare we could ever imagine. We trust in God that he will comfort us and be with our family,” Simmons’ cousin, Stephan Douglas, told NBC4 in Simmons’ native Ohio. “We believe this could have been prevented. It’s a sad day.”

Douglas added that “We didn’t need to be in this war.”

“This is uncalled for, and this is what we get,” he said.

Simmons’ grandmother, Bernice Smith, echoed the same sentiment to NBC4.

“Families are suffering right now,” she said. “Just to create a war because you want to create a war is not right.”

1. OMG, my son-in-law

worked at the company that Tyler's mother worked at. he told me she was so nice to him. My son-in-law jokingly told me he was the token white boy hired in a mainly black company. My son-in-law is devastated, he passionately hated Krasnov and now I can't imagine how he is taking this.

9. My heart breaks for this family.

Tyler Simmons would not have been there without the reckless, dangerous decision by the unhinged con artist.

I had read about Tyler over the weekend. Of the six, only Tyler and Alex Klinner had been identified as deceased. Alex Klinner was the father of a two year old, and 7 month old twins.

How many more will be grieving the loss of loved ones?

15. Donald Trump has failed us at every single possible level.

He compromised our national security and jeopardized us in ways that will take generations to repair. There is no amount of justice in the world appropriate enough for Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth. These two are absolute monsters. They must face the justice they deserve.
