Secretary of War Pete Hegseth announced Tuesday evening he is lifting the suspension of the aircrew involved in the flyby of 2 Army AH-64 Apache helicopters near music icon and Trump supporter Kid Rock’s Nashville, Tennessee area home on Saturday. Rock has also done several USO tours to perform for troops overseas in war zones.

NBC News reported earlier Tuesday that the Army had suspended the aircrew pending an investigation.

“Thank you @KidRock. @USArmy pilots suspension LIFTED. No punishment. No investigation. Carry on, patriots”

Hegseth’s announcement came within an hour of President Trump saying he would take a look into it in response to a question by Fox News reporter Peter Doocy spoke about the flyby:

Reporter: There was a viral video this week of army helicopters near Kid Rock’s house.

Trump: I’m sure they had a good time.

Reporter: They said the crews of the helicopters had been suspended. What do you think of that?

Trump: They probably should not have been doing it. I will take a look at it. If they like Kid Rock, I like Kid Rock. Maybe they were trying to defend him.

Rock, who also performs under his given name Robert Ritchie, posted videos of the flyby on Saturday at his replica “Southern White House” built high on a hilltop outside Nashville:

Rock spoke to Nashville TV station WKRN-TV Monday, explaining that during a Thanksgiving visit with Vice President JD Vance at nearby Fort Campbell he had invited flight crews to “cruise by” his place after seeing them fly by his home on several occasions. Rock said the Saturday flyby was not planned and that he was taken by surprise.

Rock also said he wasn’t worried the crews would be disciplined, saying, “I think they’re gonna be alright, my buddy is commander-in-chief.”

Turns out he was right.
