Pentagon: US Army Secretary submits resignation according to US media
The merry-go-round of personnel changes continues to turn. The Undersecretary of State for the Army wants to leave his post. The reason is reportedly a dispute with Defense Minister Bjørn Hegseth.
US Army Secretary Daniel Driscoll has reportedly resigned, according to CNN and Fox News, citing unnamed sources. Driscoll, a close associate of Vice President JD Vance, had been in the position for only 1.5 years. His resignation comes amid reported tensions with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, with whom he worked closely with General Randy George, who was pushed to resign in early April.
A White House spokesperson praised Driscoll's contributions to President Donald Trump's agenda, saying the US Army is "stronger than ever" thanks to his work.
