… Multiple War Department officials confirmed to Fox News that top military commanders had been asked to fly to Virginia for a meeting next week, though the topic of the discussion is unclear.
The lack of details surrounding the gathering has some fearing a looming purge. War Secretary Pete Hegseth has previously said he wants to cut 20% of senior generals and admirals.
The order, first reported by the Washington Post, applies to senior officers with the rank of brigadier general or above or their Navy equivalent and their top enlisted advisers.
It comes as administration officials have been preparing for a new national defense strategy that makes homeland defense a top priority, where the strategy had long had a focus on pivoting to the Indo-Pacific.

Purge the crazy hard core Biden commanders from the military.
They don’t serve America’s interests.
Let’s assume any approving nods to Charlie Kirk being assassinated will not go down well.
My guess: Hegseth is going to do a major reorganization of the US military. Lots of generals and admirals will be told they will lose their positions. That will lead to retirements or and/reduction in ranks.
653 generals and admirals are too many.
I hope there is a purge. for 12 of the last 16 years the Dems had control of the military. They used that time to get rid of patriots and stuffed the upper ranks with rat Nancy Boys.
Is it really a smart move to assemble our entire military leadership into one place?
Thank you, very interesting!
Exactly my thought... security better be at an all-time high.
I’ve had that done to me in civvie world. The company asked all of us to a single meeting place and then we were handed envelops. Big envelopes had all of your paperwork for termination along with the severance pay plan and the small regular envelopes pretty much said, “Get up. Walk out. Get back to work.”
A lot of those billets are glorified project managers and probably be better serviced by senior warrant or field grade officers.
I doubt if these being assembled are our best and brightest, hence the need for Hegs to shitcan many.
i’m not following his signal group anymore
Is it smart to announce it?
War Secretary? Was the name change made official????
1. Security guards issued shotguns
2..Pallet load of box cartons arrive
3..Employees attend box assembly class.
It wasn’t announced. It was leaked to the Washington Post.
A news item a week or so ago showed the change being made to his office door. That’s fairly “official”
