๐ Summary
US Army Secretary Dan Driscoll is reportedly planning to leave his position by late 2026. This departure follows months of reported tension with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. Driscoll's exit could leave the Army without a Senate-confirmed leader. The Army also currently lacks a Senate-confirmed chief of staff. These developments signal significant changes at the Pentagon's senior levels.
