WASHINGTON, Sept. 5 (Xinhua) — U.S. President Donald Trump is set to sign an executive order on Friday to rename the Defense Department the "Department of War," local media reported.

A full legal change would still require congressional approval.

Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth have argued that the revival represents a stronger “warrior spirit.” Critics have warned that it could come at a high cost and detract from security priorities.

“Defense is too defensive,” Trump said last month. “We want to defend, but we also want to attack if we have to. So I think that sounds better.”

The Department of War, created in 1789, directed the U.S. Army and oversaw the U.S. armed forces during both world wars before being transformed into the Department of Defense in 1949. –0–
