ON THE SHOULDERS OF GIANTS. Voiced by @jockowillink. REAL OPERATORS. NOT ACTORS. Original score performed by more than 100 military band members. This is a TRIBUTE to the modern American warfighter—and to every warrior whose sacrifice carried the mission forward.

Honored by the trust and confidence of @SecWar. This isn’t just a job for me. This is personal. From this point forward, there’s no confusion about who’s accountable. If we don’t get this fixed, there’s only one person to blame. Me. Our Service members have kept their promise to this country. Now it’s time we keep ours. No more excuses. No more empty promises. Just accountability, action, and results. Clean. Safe. Comfortable. Period. We’ve got work to do. Let’s get after it.

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.

.@msstate is leading the way in developing the next generation of leaders who will serve and lead our nation. We’re proud to welcome them into America’s Corps of Cadets. 🇺🇸

GOD BLESS AMERICA🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

The next generation is raising their right hand and saying, “SEND ME.” 🇺🇸 @SECWAR spoke with ROTC cadets at the University of Tennessee and administered the Oath of Enlistment to 95 incredible Americans. The patriots of Tennessee have answered the call.

NEXT STOP ON THE SEND ME TOUR: KNOXVILLE, TENNESSEE.

My official @DeptOfWar Assistant Press Secretary account is now live!🇺🇸 Give me a follow @OliviaKopangDOW for updates on how the Pentagon is delivering on @POTUS and @SecWar’s America First agenda!

Update from CENTCOM Commander:

In lockstep with @SeanParnellASW and Department Leadership. Critical Technologies is focused on cutting acquisition timelines and putting combat ready autonomous systems into our warfighters hands in 24 months or less. Building capabilities that deter adversaries and WIN.

Yesterday, @SECWAR joined our service secretaries at @AUSAorg for a panel on the future of warfighting. The War Department is working in LOCKSTEP to ensure our warfighters have the advanced capabilities they need to WIN.

The future of warfare is being built TODAY thanks to President Trump and Secretary Hegseth. At @AUSAorg, @SeanParnellASW reaffirmed the War Department’s commitment to accelerating innovation, delivering advanced capabilities, and ensuring our warfighters have the tools they need to WIN.

Today, @SECWAR met with his U.K. counterpart, Secretary of State for Defence Wes Streeting, at the Pentagon. They discussed the need for greater European – and especially British – leadership within NATO and the imperative for allies to increase defense spending further and faster.

Best Soldiers. Best leaders. Best Army on the planet. Proud to have been a small part of this historic institution — and to stand with those who volunteered to serve our great nation. 🇺🇸

Arsenal of Freedom. Thank you @POTUS.

To be clear: ✅ The @DeptofWar has never procured or used and will not use the mRNA flu vaccine. ✅ The historically used flu vaccine is optional for all Service members. ✅ Military Departments all complied with @SecWar memo by: 1. Making the flu vaccine optional, and 2. Requesting reasonable exceptions for force protection reasons. ✅ All Service members may request religious or medical exemptions from the flu vaccine. ✅ The health and welfare of our force is our number one priority.

.@SeanParnellASW kicked off @SecWar panel at @AUSAorg today: "My soldiers in Afghanistan didn’t have time to wait on a ten-year acquisition cycle. Thanks to the leadership of Secretary Hegseth, today’s soldiers won’t have to."

Today, I spoke alongside our service secretaries at AUSA about accelerating innovation and delivering advanced capabilities to our warfighters. The Joint Force is moving at SPEED to equip our warfighters and maintain America’s battlefield advantage.

.@SECWAR "Thank you for mentioning OUR SECRET WEAPON—Deputy Secretary Steve Feinberg. When the story of this chapter is written about how we moved as urgently, quickly, and efficiently—and differently—as possible, as the President demands, Steve Feinberg's name will be at the top of that list."

.@SECWAR spoke about the generational $1.5 trillion investment request.

.@SECWAR "I actually don’t know what the previous administration did for four years in this job... On hypersonics... they took a nap. On space... they took a nap. On weaponization of space... they took a nap. On drones... they took a nap."
