Travel note 11*: POTUS deplanes / Marine One departure

*This is numbered 11 because the last was 10, please note your pooler accidentally skipped #9.

POTUS exited Air Force One at 1948, followed by his father in law, Commerce Secretary Lutnick, Karoline Leavitt and Sergio Gor.

He proceeded down the front air stairs, returned a salute from the Air Force officer (a Colonel, female) was there to greet him. He walked to a waiting HMX-1 helicopter, saluted the Marines at the foot of the forward steps, and boarded. The others mentioned above boarded through the aft set of steps. The Marine sentry on hand then closed both sets of stairs.

The helicopter, now with call sign Marine One, spun up its rotor roughly a minute later, began taxiing away at 1952 and was wheels up at 1954.

On behalf of myself and my fellow co-poolers from WSJ, NPR, NBC, NewsNation, Daily Signal and the photo wires, it’s been a pleasure chronicling this weekend’s POTUS travel for you and for posterity.

With that said, I leave you in the capable hands of the in-town pool who is dutifully waiting for POTUS on the South Lawn.
