Cameras banned from dignified transfer of 3 airmen after Trump's ball cap backlash

President Donald Trump's Pentagon banned the use of cameras at the dignified transfer of three dead U.S. service members killed during the war with Iran.

The president was expected to attend the return of Capt. Curtis Angst, Capt. Seth Koval and Tech. Sgt. Tyler Simmons. All three of the Ohio airmen were killed in action in Iraq.

Fox News host John Roberts noted that cameras had been banned at the event.

"We should point out that at the request of the families, the dignified transfer is going to remain private. There will not be any cameras there like we have seen in the past; we will not see scenes of the president welcoming the heroes back home," Roberts said.

Trump faced backlash for wearing a ball cap during a previous dignified transfer.
