In the open letter, signed by 674 veterans, the writers denounce “recent baseless media attacks against President Trump from anonymous sources” and accuse Trump’s political opponents of concocting the story to “divide the nation and meddle in this election. The Sept. 4 letter, which featured a US flag on its letterhead, was obtained by Breitbart News.
The letter writers were referring to a recent article in The Atlantic, which quoted unnamed senior staff members who said Trump refused to go on a scheduled visit to the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery outside Paris to visit the graves of American soldiers because he did not want to travel in the rain.

Trump vigorously denied the comments.
