July 6 (UPI) -- President Donald Trump first paycheck -- which he donated in April to the National Parks Service -- will go toward the restoration of Antietam, a Civil War battlefield in Maryland, Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke announced.
Zinke spoke Wednesday at the Antietam National Battlefield near Sharpsburg, Md., site of an 1862 battle. He said Trump's $78,333 first-quarter salary will be combined with an anonymous donation of $22,000 and the pledge of funds by two non-profit organizations to bring the total to $263,545. The funding will restore a building and replace fencing at the battlefield site.
