"It feels good to be out of my house," the 77-year-old told reporters, speech slightly muffled by the face covering. His wife Jill wore a similar mask.He saluted about a dozen veterans and other onlookers and thanked them for their service, while maintaining a suitable distance.. Donald Trump, who will be 74 next month, is in the same category.The president took part in a wreath-laying ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia and visited a historic fort in Baltimore.
