Air Force Investigation Finds 'There Was No Violation of Anything' When Personnel Stayed at Trump Resort

The establishment media pounced last month after discovering that some Air Force personnel had stayed at a Trump Organization-owned resort in Scotland while traveling on official military business.

The results of an internal travel log investigation reveal the Air Force crews followed established procedures and did nothing wrong, according to an Air Force general.

The outlet reported last month that in March, the Alaska-based crew of a C-17 military transport plane stayed at President Donald Trump's Turnberry resort in Scotland on the way to and on the way back from a routine trip to Kuwait.

In the vast majority of cases between 2015 and 2019, Air Force crews on layovers in the area did not stay at the Trump-owned Turnberry resort, the Air Force's internal investigation found.

Seventeen percent of the crews booked stays about 30 miles away in Glasgow, while just 6 percent stayed at Turnberry.

A U.S. official told Fox at the time that the Air Force looked into "The vast majority [of] the 659 overnight stays" near Prestwick Airport between 2015 and 2019, and that "Approximately 6 percent of those crews stayed at the Trump Turnberry."

"The review also indicated that about 75 percent of the crews stayed in the immediate vicinity of the airfield and 18 percent stayed in Glasgow."
