38th Members to Honor Fallen American Service Members at Bethany Beach Flag Salute

Members of the Mighty 38th and Southern Delaware Republican Club, and friends from across our community, are invited to gather at the Bethany Beach Boardwalk Grandstand  for a moment of unity, remembrance, and patriotism, Wednesday 3/11/2026 at 8:30 a.m.

At this gathering, we will salute the American flag and recite the Pledge of Allegiance in honor of the seven U.S. service members who recently gave their lives in service to our nation during the current conflict in the Middle East.


These brave Americans answered the call to serve and made the ultimate sacrifice defending our country.





The fallen include:

Staff Sgt. Benjamin N. Pennington, 26 Glendale, Kentucky

Maj. Jeffrey R. O’Brien, 45 – Waukee, Iowa

Chief Warrant Officer 3 Robert Marzan, 54 – Sacramento, California

Sgt. 1st Class Nicole Amor, 39 – White Bear Lake, Minnesota

Sgt. Declan Coady, 20 – Des Moines, Iowa

Capt. Cody Khork, 35 – Winter Haven, Florida

Sgt. 1st Class Noah Tietjens, 42 – Bellevue, Nebraska


Each of these men and women served with honor, courage, and dedication. They were sons and daughters, parents, spouses, friends, and neighbors whose lives reflected the very best of our nation.


As we stand together on the Bethany Beach boardwalk overlooking the ocean, we will pause to reflect on the cost of freedom and the courage of those who defend it.

The American flag represents the sacrifices of generations of service members who have protected our nation and preserved the liberties we enjoy today.


When we salute the flag and say the Pledge of Allegiance, we do so with these fallen heroes and their families in our hearts.


Please join us as we gather to honor their sacrifice and show our gratitude to those who serve.


God bless our troops, and God bless the United States of America.
