A recent incident at Arlington National Cemetery during a wreath-laying ceremony honoring service members killed in the Afghanistan War withdrawal has sparked controversy. According to a defense official, Donald Trump's campaign was warned about not taking photographs in Section 60, the burial site for military personnel killed in Afghanistan and Iraq, before an altercation occurred.

The Trump campaign was reportedly granted access to have a photographer present at the ceremony. However, a source with knowledge of the incident claimed that two campaign staff members verbally abused and pushed aside a cemetery official who tried to stop them from filming and photographing in the restricted area.
