Army Secretary Dan Driscoll affirmed on Tuesday that he has no intention of resigning or departing from his position despite purported tension between himself and War Secretary Pete Hegseth.

Driscoll’s new assertion that he intends to stay in his role comes the week after Hegseth pushed Army chief of staff General Randy George to retire more than a year before his tenure was set to end. George became the latest member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to be pushed out early as Hegseth looks to reshape the military’s senior leadership.
