Kid Rock news: Army reviewing after Apache helicopter flyby near Trump supporter's Nashville home

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The U.S. Army has initiated an investigation following an unusual incident involving two AH-64 Apache helicopters. These military aircraft, during a training exercise, were seen hovering near the residence of music artist Kid Rock, who is known for his vocal support of President Donald Trump.

Kid Rock took to social media on Saturday, sharing two videos that captured the helicopters hovering beside his pool. In the footage, the musician can be seen clapping, saluting, and raising his fist in a gesture of support, set against the backdrop of the Nashville skyline.

In his post, Kid Rock expressed his admiration by stating, “This is a level of respect that the Governor of California will never know. God Bless America and all those who have made the ultimate sacrifice to defend her.” This comment seemed to be a jab at California Governor Gavin Newsom, a Democrat who has often been at odds with Trump.

Major Jonathon Bless, a public affairs officer for the 101st Airborne Division, clarified on Monday that Kid Rock did not officially request the helicopter visit. The division, based at Fort Campbell near the Tennessee-Kentucky border, frequently conducts training flights over the Nashville area.

During their exercise, the helicopters also flew over a protest titled “No Kings,” which was directed against the Trump administration. However, Major Bless stated that the helicopter training run was unrelated to the protest events happening that day.

The helicopters also overflew a Nashville “No Kings” protest against the Trump administration on Saturday, but Bless said the training run had nothing to do with the protest.

Bless also provided a written statement from the Army.

“Army aviators must adhere to strict safety standards, professionalism, and established flight regulations. An administrative review is underway to assess the mission and verify compliance with regulations and airspace requirements. Appropriate action will be taken if any violations are found,” the statement reads.
