Video shows soldier reprimanding Hegseth and advisers at Tomb of the Unknown Soldier

A US soldier guarding the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier reprimanded Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth and a group of advisers and staff during a visit to Arlington National Cemetery on Veterans Day. Video shows Hegseth, his wife Jennifer and members of his team posing for photographs on the steps in front of the memorial. As the group finishes taking pictures, laughter can be heard before the guard reminds visitors to maintain an atmosphere of silence and respect.

A Pentagon spokesman said the soldier had correctly and respectfully reminded everyone to maintain decorum during the solemn occasion.
