VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. — The Navy is investigating the apparent display of a Donald Trump presidential campaign flag by the lead vehicle in a military convoy.
Rep. Scott Taylor, R-Va., who is a Trump supporter and a former Navy SEAL, has called the sailors' alleged actions "inappropriate."
The Virginian-Pilot reported Thursday that the Navy has repeatedly warned sailors against appearing to endorse candidates while on the job.
The convoy belongs to a special warfare unit based in Virginia Beach. But the images of a pro-Trump flag on a vehicle's antenna first circulated on social media and through news reports in Kentucky.
