US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth Plans Possible Military Leaders Meeting at Quantico
US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is reportedly considering convening another large meeting of senior military leaders at Marine Corps Base Quantico in 2026, following a similar gathering in September 2025. The previous meeting, held on short notice without explanation, focused on refocusing the military on warfighting and reversing prior diversity initiatives. The upcoming event may include new directives, though details on attendance and timing remain unclear. This follows recent reports about Hegseth's role in the firing of former Army Chief General Randy George amid a helicopter investigation involving singer Kid Rock.
