White Creek, Tenn. (Filmogaz.com) — The U.S. Army has launched an inquiry after a video showed AH-64 Apache helicopters near the home of musician Kid Rock. The clip appeared online March 29 and drew immediate attention.
What the footage shows
The short video shows the performer on a hilltop at his property. He claps and salutes while the helicopters move overhead. Kid Rock referred to the property as his “Southern White House” in other posts.

Training flight and protest timing
