President Donald Trump has appointed Adam Telle as the new acting Army secretary, marking a significant change in the Army’s leadership. Trump announced the appointment late on Thursday, expressing confidence in Telle by calling him ‘a Great Patriot, who is respected by all.’ Telle previously held the position of assistant secretary of the Army for civil works.
Telle succeeds Dan Driscoll, who resigned from his role as the Army’s top civilian leader earlier this week. Driscoll revealed in a social media post on Tuesday night that his final full day as Army secretary would be Wednesday, but he did not provide a specific reason for his resignation.
The resignation follows weeks of speculation regarding Driscoll stepping down, reportedly due to disagreements with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. The situation continues to develop, and further updates are anticipated.
