Odaily Planet Daily reported that US President Trump signed several executive orders in the Oval Office on September 5th, including one allowing the Department of Defense to use the title "Department of War" in official settings. Trump stated, "I think it's a more appropriate name, especially considering the current state of the world." The White House emphasized that this move does not change the Department of Defense's legal name, but rather gives it a historical secondary title to strengthen its military identity.
