A security guard and three other employees at a high school in the suburbs of Detroit, Mich. refused to allow a lieutenant colonel in the United States Army to enter the school because he was wearing his military uniform.
The incident occurred on Tuesday at Rochester Adams High School, reports Detroit Fox affiliate WJBK.
The man denied entry to the school is Lt. Col. Sherwood Baker, a 24-year Army veteran whose military career has included visits to Iraq and Afghanistan.
Baker was visiting the taxpayer-funded public school with his daughter, he said, because he wanted to speak with her counselor about her schedule.
