A report by CBS highlights serious safety oversights by the US Army leading up to an Iranian drone strike on a military outpost in Kuwait on March 1, which resulted in the deaths of six soldiers and injuries to 20 others. Survivors indicated that requests for additional medical supplies and personnel made weeks prior were ignored, leaving the unit unprepared for a mass-casualty event. Master Sergeant Ann Marie Carrier criticized the lack of training and planning, stating, "We didn't have any training. There was really nothing in place for something like that to happen." Major Stephen Ramsbottom expressed that Master Sergeant Nicole Amor, one of the casualties, might have survived if adequate medical resources had been available. The aftermath was chaotic, with soldiers using civilian vans to transport the wounded to local hospitals. US intelligence had warned as early as January that the outpost could be targeted, but soldiers reported inadequate aerial defense measures. In response, the Pentagon defended its actions, asserting that while no plan is perfect, accusations of negligence are unfounded, and an investigation into the attack is ongoing.
