US Vice President Trains at California Base

The US Vice President participated in a 90-minute training session with elite forces at a California base. During his speech, the crowd erupted with chants of 'Charlie' in reference to the late founder of Turning Point USA, Charlie Kirk.

Vice President J.D. Vance expressed that the experience left him feeling as though he had been 'hit by a freight train'. Photos show Vance carrying logs, paddling in the ocean, running on the beach, and navigating an obstacle course with a team from the US Navy SEALs.

The Vice President has previously stated that his military service has shaped his views on national security, the costs of war, and accountability. This announcement aligns with a broader strategy promoted by officials from the Trump administration, emphasizing the importance of physical fitness within the armed forces.
