A Marine who says he saved a baby in Kabul by lifting the infant over the walls outside Hamid Karzai International Airport is now under investigation for appearing on stage with former President Donald Trump at a recent political rally in Georgia.

Lance Cpl. Hunter Clark was one of nearly 6,000 U.S. troops tasked with guarding the airport last month as thousands of desperate people tried to get in to escape the Taliban. On Sept. 25, Clark appeared on stage with Trump for just under a minute at a “Save America Rally” in Perry, Georgia.

Clark quickly introduced himself as “the guy that pulled the baby over the wall,” adding that “it’s definitely probably one of the greatest things I’ve done in my entire life.” 

The Marine continued, saying “I just want to thank all the support from all y’all. It really means a lot and I’m glad to be home now.”

Clark did not specify when he pulled a baby over the wall at Hamid Karzai International Airport. After this story was first published, Clark’s command told Task & Purpose that he was not the Marine shown in an Aug. 19 viral video hoisting an infant above the razor wire outside the airport.

The 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit cannot confirm if Clark is one of the other Marines in that video, said Capt. Kelton J Cochran, a spokesman for the 24th MEU. Cochran also noted that there were several incidents during the evacuation of Afghans handing children to U.S. troops.

Now Clark’s command is looking into whether he violated the military’s ban on active-duty troops engaging in partisan political activity.

“The 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU) has initiated a command investigation regarding LCpl Hunter Clark’s attendance at the event last weekend to determine if any DoD policies were violated,” Cochran said. “Any details pertaining to this incident are not releasable while the investigation is being conducted.”

  • We need strong fearless Republicans not RINOS and idiots like Liz Cheney 

    • I truely believe the GoneOldParty has not the courage nor will to fight and win any longer. We need a new party that will 'pillage and burn' as Sherman did in his march thru Atlanta. America is being taken from within and without immediate, positive, verifiable action she will no longer be the pillar of freedom on this ball of mud so rampant with vile enemies. 

    • ...you are searching for a very rare, nearly extinct 'animal.' 

  • This nonsense has to stop.  Investigation a Marine because he is a loyal American!  That is just plain anti-American.  How on earth can we survice another 3 3/4 years under this administration.  Every Bureaucrat in Washington D.C. needs to be fired now.  Anyone appointed by Biden should be investigated as a traitor!  I don't believe any longer there is one person in the democrat party that cares 1 iota about the USA.

    • Biggest crime of the time is to stand for your country!
