Whatever makes you sleep better at night. As the secretary of defense Hegseth should carry himself to a higher standard. Have some respect for the men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for this country.

Hes done it 3 times now supposedly.

Real simple. He and his party fricked up. Guard did his job. They got called on it, The administration realized it, and an apology issued.
Here's what makes it worse however:
It would haven been better if Hegseth took this one head on and apologized. Instead, Hegseth has not made any direct public statement regarding the November 11, 2026 incident at Arlington National Cemetery. Instead, the Pentagon issued an official response through its chief spokesperson.
After Hegseth, 46, and company were reprimanded for disturbing the solemn scene, Pentagon Spokesperson Sean Parnell defended the soldier.
“The Secretary and the entire Department have always honored—and will always honor—the sacrifices our military men and women have made to keep America safe,” he told the Daily Beast. “While commemorating this solemn day, a soldier correctly and respectfully reminded everyone to maintain decorum.”
He's the Defense Secretary. He should lead by example. He isn't.

It's hilarious watching a bunch of people who proudly voted for people who are vowing to start impeaching SCOTUS justices in January pretend like they're serious patriots in this thread.
"Oh, tomb of the unknown soldier? Sounds like patriot shite. Let me look it up on the internet how a person is supposed to act while there and then pretend like I was there once and it was the most profound shite of my life. And meanwhile, hell yes let's impeach all of the conservatives on the SCOTUS and stack the deck with liberals. Then let's begin going after average conservative citizens for wrong think."
frickin' communists.
Do you feel better now after having gotten all that off your chest?

You described it correctly.
I was very surprised to see them posing for pictures.

They do this all the time. Too bad you never went there.
Tourists are dumb as hell.
It was Hegseth’s Group that erupted in laughter…..no one was yelling at Hegseth….
Man you screwed up your intended BS royally.

If you've never been to the Unknown Soldier's tomb, go witness it in person.
Very powerful.

Aside of the talking and laughing which was so disrespectful, I would too would add taking the picture too? WTF.

Reminds me of the King's guard in London.

Doesn't matter who it is, that's the protocol at the tomb. Don't disrespect it.

Correct. I served in the Old Guard from 81-84 (not as a Tomb Guard). That is exactly how they are supposed to react.
One of my dearest friends from my military days walked post at the Tomb. Mad respect, my friend.

Exactly. Taking a photo of the tomb and wreath is OK.
A group selfie with that as the background screams "look at me!"

Talaricco put his d-ck back in his pants yesterday.
Apparently he stopped at Buc-ee's at the Luling I-10 exit in Texas,

The ultimate display of disrespectful arse-jackery.
Someone shoulda followed him out and punched him in the mouth.

If this was Biden or Obamas SecDef fox news would be running this story like 9/11.

And this thread would be 60 pages longer full of calls for military tribunals to hang Obama
This is on par for Hegseth. His entire vision for the armed forces is stupidity gestures designed entirely for optics like this is the fricking WWE or something.
