U.S. Army Secretary Dan Driscoll has resigned, marking the latest high-profile departure from the Department of Defense. The resignation comes after months of internal turmoil within the Pentagon, which has included leaked investigations and the ousting of senior officials.
Driscoll, who held the second-highest position in the Army, reportedly sought to leave his post due to apparent friction with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. His exit adds to a period of significant leadership changes and internal challenges within the defense establishment.
