Three U.S. military personnel allegedly had improper contact with foreign women while traveling with President Donald Trump on his trip this month to Asia, the Washington Post reported on Tuesday.
The Post reports that the three service members worked for the White House Communications Agency, which works with White House officials to provide secure communications.
"We are aware of the incident, and it is now under investigation", Mark Wright, spokesman for the DOD, told WaPo.

According to a NBC report from August, defense officials said that the members involved were both from the Army and the Air Force and that they didn't register the women when they brought them inside the hotel, whose surveillance cameras caught the involved men bringing the women into the secured area. There is no word on whether the officials have ordered any disciplinary actions. If found guilty, the men who were involved in the incident could face losing their security clearances or could be subjected to administrative discipline or even courts-martial.
