U.S. Army Issues Statement Criticizing Trump Campaign Over Cemetery Dispute
The statement said Trump’s staff “unfairly attacked” an Arlington National Cemetery employee.
The Army on Thursday criticized the conduct of members of former President Donald J. Trump’s campaign in a statement about a confrontation at Arlington National Cemetery this week, in which campaign staff clashed with a cemetery employee who was trying to enforce a prohibition on political activity.
Participants in the Trump campaign’s wreath-laying ceremony on Monday “were made aware” of that prohibition, but “an A.N.C. employee who attempted to ensure adherence to these rules was abruptly pushed aside,” the statement said. “Consistent with the decorum expected at A.N.C., this employee acted with professionalism and avoided further disruption.”
It added, “This incident was unfortunate, and it is also unfortunate that the A.N.C. employee and her professionalism has been unfairly attacked.” A Trump spokesman had disparaged the employee and claimed she was “clearly suffering from a mental health episode.”
