In Washington, D.C., President Trump carrying on a tradition and
honoring all the men and women who have served in a military uniform.
It comes at a time, though,
when the war in Iran is hanging over the administration.
Fox's Mike Emanuel has more.
Three, two, one.
President Trump marking Veterans Day with a time-honored tradition,
laying a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier
in Arlington National Cemetery
to honor the men and women who have served our country.
We reaffirm our undying gratitude to every patriot
who has answered the call of duty.
This Veterans Day is the first since the war
in Iran began more than eight months ago.
Nearly 1,000 service members have been injured.
And at least 23 have died in the conflict.
The president acknowledged their sacrifice, vowing it won't be in vain.
When this conflict is over, and it will be soon,
the entire world will be a much safer
and better place.
But the clock is ticking on the president's ability
to end the war on his terms.
Democrats have promised to rein in Trump's war powers
when they take control of Congress
in January.
We have to do everything that we can.
To end this reckless and costly war of choice in Iran.
Even Republicans are acknowledging the war's political
and economic toll at home.
This election was largely about,
it was about the war in Iran and the economy.
Obviously that is an issue that the administration
is gonna be clear eyed about and focused on.
Sustained fighting in Iran has been largely paused for months,
but ships continue to face
attacks in the Strait of Hormuz.
And diplomatic talks have yet to produce a deal.
In Washington, Mike Emanuel, Fox News.
A U.S. Army Sentinel reprimanding Pentagon Chief Pete Hegseth
and his guests at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
Hegseth and a group of his senior advisors were posing for a photo
when the Sentinel can be heard.
They're yelling.
A Pentagon spokesperson says the soldier correctly and respectfully...
Hopefully reminded everyone to maintain decorum.
In fact, that is what they always yell if someone is loud or
making noise at the tomb of the unknown soldier.
It comes though as Hegseth is facing scrutiny and
pressure for how he's been running the Department of Defense.
