US Army Secretary Resigns Amid Internal Friction Over Conflict Strategy
U.S. Army Secretary Dan Driscoll has submitted his resignation to President Donald Trump following months of tension with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. The departure follows deep disagreements regarding the ouster of senior officers and the strategic direction of the service during active operations in the Middle East and Europe. Driscoll's exit leaves the Army without its top Senate-confirmed civilian leader, with Undersecretary Mike Obadal expected to assume the highest civilian duties temporarily.
