A familiar side story on an AF1 trip is the Secret Service advance team getting drunk and having an issue with the locals. A friend's son was given a rookie protective detail assignment years ago guarding Senator Obama. He loved the job, loved the Secret Service, but just couldn't take the party culture on the road which cost him a divorce. He transferred to another federal agency.

Biden security team member arrested in S.Korea for drunk assault -police
By Joori Roh
SEOUL, May 20 (Reuters) - A member of U.S. President Joe Biden's advance security team has been arrested in Seoul, accused of drunkenly assaulting a South Korean citizen a day before Biden arrived on a visit, police said on Friday.
The team member, who works for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, was detained in the early hours of Thursday after getting into a fight over a taxi, an official at Yongsan district police told Reuters.
The incident occurred outside the Grand Hyatt hotel, where Biden is expected to stay.
The police official did not give the name or other information on the suspect.
The Department of Homeland Security did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The White House referred questions to the Secret Service, which did not immediately respond.
The Homeland Security department includes the Secret Service, the agency that guards the president. Secret Service members have periodically been involved in incidents over misbehavior overseas in the past.
