Just last month, AH-64 Apaches with the 101st Airborne Division were filmed hovering outside of Rock’s multi-million dollar home in Nashville during a “training exercise,” leading to the announced suspension of the pilots and an investigation by the U.S. Army, an investigation which was quickly closed and the pilots reinstated by Defense Secretary Hegseth. A Spokesperson for Fort Belvoir referred all questions about today’s event to the Office of the Secretary of Defense.
