President Donald Trump says a planned 250-foot triumphal arch in Washington DC will double as a military facility, with space to store and deploy drones and positions for snipers, after what he called the 'strong request' of the US military. Announcing the changes on Truth Social, he said the additions were driven by national security considerations.
The arch is planned for Memorial Circle in Lady Bird Johnson Park, along the route connecting the Lincoln Memorial with Arlington National Cemetery. The Pentagon said it had no further details beyond Trump's post, while the White House declined to comment.
