US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth has awarded a medal to the guard who reprimanded his group at Arlington National Cemetery.
A video of a Veterans Day observance event on Wednesday showed Hegseth, his wife, and senior advisers laughing and talking while posing for photos in front of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier before the guard told them to be quiet.
