Just because the news says something about it doesn’t mean its true.

I’ll believe all the details when DOD or the Corps makes/made a statement.

I can verify this is true. Kait is my niece and she did in fact give birth to Michael Everett Wyatt the day after learning of her husband being shot and killed in Afghanistan. Derek was burried with full honors on the Jan 7th, google this and you will see the heart wrenching photographs of Kait holding the flag presented to her by the USMC.
