USA to call it "Department of War" again
-
"Fact Sheet: President Donald J. Trump Restores the United States Department of War"
tl;dr
-
they called it Department of War, from 1789 to 1947
-
National Military Establishment, from 1947 to 1949
-
Department of Defense, from 1949 to today
-
only Congress can change it officially
-
but President can change it unofficially, allow alternate name for daily work
-
since 1949, USA won only smallest wars - Panama, Grenada - had better fortune with old name
-
old name makes purpose clear: when that department gets involved, it's war, & wars are to be won, or else don't do it
Palmer Lucky of Anduril, did he start it? He may think so. https://x.com/lulumeservey/status/1964098589631672405
