US Air Force (Air Force) officer James C. Willis (James C. Willis) found the dead on Al-Udeid Air Base in Qatar. It is reported by Air Force Times.
According to the TELEGRAM channel Wargonzo, Iran’s special services included Willis to the list of persons involved in the killing of General Suleimani, head of the Al-Kuds Elevate Special Force Corps of the Islamic Revolution.
It is noted that the death of the 55-year-old lieutenant colonel of the Air Force is not associated with combat actions. At the moment, the circumstances of death are established. Willis commanded the Squadron WPW “Red Horse”. He was in Qatar to support the military operation of the American army.
The commander of the deceased officer Klifford Theony said that the colleagues of the lieutenant colonel used all the resources to help his family, friends and division. “He was a valuable member of our team, and we will miss it very much,” the officer stressed.
In January, the current commander Al-Kuds, the Brigadier General Ismail Kaani promised to take revenge on everyone involved in the murder of Suleymani. “You will not be able to relax more even at home, and it is not unlikely that the ignition will find you exactly there,” he threatened.
Suleimani died in Iraqi Baghdad on January 3, 2020 with a missile shelling by the United States. Together with the general, several officers who accompanied his officers and deputy commander of the Shiite militia of Iraq Abu Majdi Al-Mukhandis were killed. In response, Tehran on the night of January 8 released dozens of missiles on American objects in Iraq. The operation was the name “Martyr Suleimani”.
