  Speaker 1: Going to Mitch mccanna, US correspondent. Now, there's been a

• 0:09
  Speaker 1: campaign team. Mitch, what's going on here?
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right, Good morning, Ryan. Donald Trump arrived at

  Speaker 2: the Arlington National Cemetery just outside Washington, DC earlier this week,
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: where he was paying respects to service members who had

  Speaker 2: died during the withdrawal of Afghanistan a couple of years ago.

  Speaker 2: Now it allads that two members of Donald Trump's campaign
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: staff had a verbal and physical altercation with an official
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: at the cemetery. Now it's reported this confrontation happened because
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: the cemetery official tried to prevent Donald Trump's staff from
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: filming and photographing and a section where recent US casualties

  Speaker 2: are buried. Now law prohibits any political campaigning at the

  Speaker 2: National Cemetery, and Arlington had provided their own photographer so
