Here’s my full keynote remarks from earlier today at @AUSAorg.
I was honored to join @POTUS, @SecWar, @SecVetAffairs, @SecNav, and @SecAFOfficial at a ceremony honoring our Nation’s Veterans at Arlington National Ceremony today.
Our Nation is forever grateful for the brave Americans who made the selfless decision to protect and defend the United States.
Today, @secwar announced commonsense and necessary directives to modernize the Army’s senior service colleges.
These are critical institutions that prepare our Army leaders for rapidly evolving warfare, and this effort is long overdue!
These changes ensure our warfighters are led by senior leaders who are expertly trained and singularly focused on defeating America's adversaries.
The Army will begin executing this directive immediately.
BREAKING: Secretary of War Pete Hegseth Orders Sweeping Overhaul of Military Education to Refocus on Combat Lethality.
The directive reverses decades of academic drift, eliminating ideological distractions in favor of joint warfighting mastery, decision-forcing rigor, and competitive wargaming.

Thursday, at Fort Stewart, we honored eight @3rd_Infantry Soldiers.
These heroes displayed composure under fire and steady leadership in the days that followed.
They are proof that the Rock of the Marne perseveres, just like it always has.

Under the leadership of @POTUS President Trump and @SecWar Hegseth, we’re taking a whole-of-nation approach to war fighting.
In Arkansas, I saw it firsthand: production at Pine Bluff Arsenal, Walmart’s global distribution expertise, and logistics and materials research at @uarkansas.
Thank you to Senators @johnboozman and @SenTomCotton and Representative @rep_stevewomack for supporting this work. When we bring the Army, industry, and researchers together, we give our Soldiers every advantage.
Under the leadership of GEN LaNeve, LTG Taylor has made the Army proud as he has secured the Homeland, deterred the cartels, and led unprecedented innovation to help the Army control and secure terrain better than ever.
This is How the Army Fights!
Honored to visit @FightingFirst, the “Big Red One” in Fort Riley, KS. I was joined by Senator Roger Marshall, Senator @JerryMoran, and @RepDerekSchmidt to see the work underway to enhance mobilization capability and support Irwin Army Hospital for our Soldiers, veterans, and their families.
From barracks and housing to on-post health care, under @SecWar’s direction, we are modernizing readiness and quality of life. We ask so much of our Soldiers and their families, and we owe them that same commitment every day.
Wednesday, @SECNAV Hung Cao, many other top @DeptofWar leaders, and I attended the Northeast Indiana Defense Summit, where Hung delivered outstanding keynote remarks.
Under the leadership of @POTUS and @SecWar we have torn down bureaucratic red tape to deliver Soldier-ready products faster. There in Indiana, I was honored to announce two brand new ranges that will be part of our innovative test range concierge service (testrange.army.mil) to Camp Atterbury and Muscatatuck.
Thanks to @SenatorBanks, @SenToddYoung, and @NationalGuardIN for driving this capability for the Army and for our industry partners.
Warfighting modernization at the speed of American innovation right here in Indiana.
Vice Chief of Staff and Acting Chief of Staff of the Army Gen. LaNeve, @SenatorWicker, and I met with Camp Shelby leadership to discuss how its role as a premier Army test range puts Mississippi at the forefront of @USArmy innovation.
By lowering barriers to range access for industry, we’re enabling faster testing and refinement to accelerate the delivery of technology to our warfighters.
While NASCAR pit crews will be working hard down the road at Talladega Superspeedway tomorrow, I met with the “Pit Crew of the American Warfighter” at Anniston Army Depot yesterday with HASC Chairman @RepMikeRogersAL.
The work done in Anniston is fundamental to how we equip the warfighter and support @DeptofWar’s "Arsenal of Freedom." Our ability to remain the most lethal and dominant land force in human history begins with the steel, sweat and expertise within this depot.

Excellent choice!
I have officially appointed @Dakota_Meyer to serve as my Senior Advisor for the Barracks Task Force.
Dakota will represent my office at installations across the country—going directly to our warfighters, identifying what’s broken, and ensuring we FIX our barracks.
Our warriors deserve nothing less.
So proud to be with @lagovjefflandry & Gen. LaNeve to pay tribute to the outstanding service of LTC (ret.) John Purdy and to recognize @LSU and @msstate for their leadership in re-establishing their storied Corps of Cadets in partnership with @SecWar.
Honored to join @SecArmy in presenting Lieutenant Colonel John Purdy with the Meritorious Public Service Medal.
A Vietnam veteran who earned 6 bronze stars, Lt. Col Purdy represents the very best of our Nation.
Louisiana, this is an American hero!
Secretary Hegseth and @POTUS have provided us with unprecedented top cover to make the rapid changes needed to modernize the Joint Force.
Grateful that @SecWar, @SECNAV, @SecAFOfficial, and @ASWAndersonSOF were able to join us at #AUSA2026 to highlight how we’re delivering for our warfighters.
“We’re making a huge bet on Next Generation Command and Control. I call this the magic in the middle. When you think about the Army, what we deliver to the Joint Force is scale and mass.”
“Our greatest strategic advantage in America, in addition to our deep capital markets… is the ingenuity that our system of government has allowed to take place within the American heart... That's something that no one else has.”
Just last night, in response to @SecWar’s establishment of Autonomous Warfare Command, the @USArmy announced Futures and Autonomous Systems Command (FASCOM).
This is how we couple all of the great work that's happening with our vast resources and centralize them so we can scale and coordinate.
We're pushing autonomy down into our units, but when it comes to acquisition and making sure our left hand knows what the right hand is doing, this happens in FASCOM, and feeds up into AutoWarCom and across the services.
Live at #AUSA2026
The Army is open for business!
We are opening up our doors to partner with American innovators.
.@OwenWest91 "The United States INVENTED the drone, but the drone was not cheapened by scaling and given to our ground forces. From your position now—why was this?
.@SECWAR "Our building, our process—a political system that incentivizes existing efforts and existing programs and the ability to keep funding them and iterating on them and PREVENTING NEW ENTRANTS IN COMPETITION."
