For Frisco residents with ties to the military, the latest US strikes on Iran may hit close to home. As a community with a significant number of veterans and active-duty personnel, the city has a vested interest in the safety and well-being of American service members abroad. The attack on the Jordanian base that prompted the US response is a sobering reminder of the risks faced by those serving overseas. Frisco's proximity to major military installations in the Dallas-Fort Worth area also means that local families may have loved ones deployed in regions affected by the escalating tensions between the US and Iran.
