Pete Hegseth and staff reprimanded by guard at Tomb of the Unknown Soldier

During a Veterans Day ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery, a soldier reprimanded Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and his staff for laughing near the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. The soldier emphasized the need for silence and respect at the memorial, which honors unidentified soldiers from major wars. Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell supported the soldier's reminder of decorum. Hegseth's visit coincided with a ceremony attended by President Trump and Vice President Vance, following a recent impeachment attempt against him that was unsuccessful but may be revisited in the future.
