It was called that up until 1949 where it was renamed Dept of Defense, which I think was a reflection of the strong distaste of war after
WWII.

I don't see why theu need to change it back, but I assume it is a message that trump wants to be seen as a war hero, or that America is a war nation.

@oldguy73 Yet it will still be the DOD on official letterhead, etc.

Trump and his cult are free to call it Dept of War ...it makes their pee pee hard.

Well, it WAS the original name of the Cabinet Post; it wasn't the Department of Defense until 1947. BUT returning it to a War Department seems to fit very well with Trump's view of himself as dictator to the world.
At least it is more honest.

The self proclaimed Peace President has now become a war monger?

Say it ain't so!
@JSul3 the war only austerity imposing empire is getting full credit for everything it's doing, for once.
This from a POS POTUS who claims to be for peace.
@independentone that peace thing was never coherent and was obviously a lie. Americans deserve and are getting full credit for everything they do, and all US aggression. Nobody else wants to laugh about it, blame Trump and vote for the same two parties again. Only Americans.
