Ashli Babbitt, an Air Force veteran who participated in the January 6th Capitol riot and was fatally shot, will receive full military funeral honors. Initially denied under the Biden administration, the Air Force reversed its decision after reviewing the circumstances of her death. The decision follows a $5 million wrongful death settlement with Babbitt's family by the Trump administration. Full military honors include a uniformed detail, Taps, and flag presentation. Babbitt served in the Air Force and Air National Guard, deploying to Afghanistan, Iraq, and the UAE.
