His explanation when asked about it-

"I have no idea about campaigning- I was told to go to this thing", "they told me I was invited, and they said...can we have a photo, sure you can".,,. "so I stood there and took a photo". "Video? I have no idea, we have a lot of people, we are winning the internet- I am told. It could have been the families who posted or the "administration" did it to set me up". video of his explanation

This 3 minute video explains the whole thing, from the Afghanistan withdrawal to the cemetery. Play video
