Army Sentinel Awarded Medal By Hegseth After Reprimanding Him

(Arlington, VA) -- The Army sentinel who reprimanded his boss, Pete Hegseth, at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier has been awarded a medal by the Secretary of War. The Pentagon confirmed Hegseth honored the soldier with the prestigious Joint Service Commendation Medal on Wednesday. It came a day after video showed the guard yelling at Hegseth and some of his staff for laughing after they posed for a picture following a Veterans Day ceremony. A Pentagon spokesperson said the "soldier correctly and respectfully reminded everyone to maintain decorum." This follows House Republicans voting to block the impeachment of Hegseth earlier this week.
