What Hegseth's Entourage Did At The Tomb Of The Unknown Soldier That Made A Sentinel Shout

A US Army sentinel guarding the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier reprimanded Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, his wife and a group of his senior advisers on Wednesday after some in the party laughed and chatted beside the memorial following the Veterans Day ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery.

"All visitors will maintain an atmosphere of silence and respect at all times," the sentinel called out across the plaza, in footage CNN aired live Wednesday afternoon.

Hegseth had been posing for photos in front of the tomb with his wife, Jennifer, chief of staff Ricky Buria, deputy chief of staff Patrick Weaver and senior adviser Tami Radabaugh when the laughter started, according to CNN. The footage doesn't show who in the group laughed, or whether Hegseth was one of them.

The group had spent the morning at the wreath-laying with President Trump and Vice President JD Vance, a day after the House voted Tuesday night to send Rep.
