US Army Secretary Dan Driscoll Expected to Leave Amid Leadership Tensions
US Army Secretary Dan Driscoll is expected to leave his post by the end of the year amid reported tensions with Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth. Driscoll and his family have moved out of the official residence, with his family relocating to North Carolina. The Army has faced leadership uncertainty since Hegseth dismissed Chief of Staff General Randy George in April without public explanation. General Christopher LaNeve currently serves as acting chief of staff. Driscoll, a former Army Ranger and ally of Vice President JD Vance, had a strained relationship with Hegseth but worked closely with George on Army reforms.
