Topline

The Department of Defense will soon be renamed to the Department of War, according to multiple outlets, as President Donald Trump follows through on his recent suggestion to revert the agency’s name back to what it was before 1949.

Trump will sign an executive order Friday making the change official, according to Fox News, which first reported the plans and cited an unnamed White House official.

Defense Department Secretary Pete Hegseth seemingly confirmed the change, quoting the Fox News story in an all-caps tweet reading: “DEPARTMENT OF WAR.”

The executive order will also rename the Pentagon’s briefing room to the “Pentagon War Annex,” Bloomberg reported.
