British broadcaster Piers Morgan reacts to Pete Hegseth’s entourage being yelled at by Arlington Sentinel on Veterans Day.
On November 11, 2026, CNN captured footage of an Army sentinel reprimanding the Secretary of War and his entourage. On Veterans Day, Hegseth and his team visited the memorial. After their visit, the group could be seen talking and laughing as they exited. This prompted the Army sentinel to warn the group to maintain their composure and remain silent. He shouted:
“All visitors will maintain an atmosphere of silence and respect at all times.”
In a statement to media outlets, Pentagon spokesperson Sean Parnell backed the soldier’s decision to do so. He said:
“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. While commemorating this solemn day, a soldier correctly and respectfully reminded everyone to maintain decorum.”
British broadcaster Piers Morgan shared his thoughts on the video. On X, he had this to say:
“Wow… humiliating moment for the Secretary of War.”
Former Republican U.S. Representative Reacts to Viral Pete Hegseth Video
Former Republican Representative Adam Kinzinger recently shared his thoughts on a soldier reprimanding Pete Hegseth and his team. On X, he uploaded a video criticizing Hegseth’s behavior, pointing out how loudly the entourage was laughing while visiting the memorial.
Kinzinger stated that visitors to a veterans’ memorial should maintain silence and show respect. Since Hegseth and his team failed to do so, the soldier reprimanded them. He said:
“Everybody knows when you go to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, you don’t laugh, you don’t talk loudly you show respect, you show honor at this tomb. I have never seen an official get scolded like that. But you can hear on the audio how loud they’re laughing, how much they’re joking around.”
Kinzinger made it clear that he was not a fan of the Secretary of War, going on to allege that Hegseth did not care about the honor of the military. He said:
“You have a Secretary of Defense that pretends like he is the most serious person that ever existed. He cares about the honor of the military, but everything is a show to him. Everything to him is about how do I get attention, how do I take the best picture, how do I look the best.”
