Army Secretary Ryan McCarthy announced Tuesday that he has directed Arlington National Cemetery to once again host Wreaths Across America after canceling the event over the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus pandemic.

The Secretary appears to have gotten the order from President Donald Trump, who criticized its cancellation on Twitter on Tuesday.
