The US Army has issued a stern rebuke of the campaign staff of former President Donald Trump following an incident that occurred at Arlington National Cemetery on Monday. In a statement released on Thursday, the Army expressed disappointment over the actions of participants in a ceremony who violated federal laws regarding political activity at the cemetery.
The statement highlighted that attendees of the August 26th ceremony were briefed on federal laws, Army regulations, and Department of Defense policies that strictly prohibit political activities on cemetery grounds. The Army spokesperson revealed that an Arlington National Cemetery employee was forcibly pushed aside when she attempted to enforce these rules.
