"10.22 Ive been asking this one for a whileand finally had time to read the law. Short answer: legally its still the Department of Defense. EO 14347 (Sept. X 2025) only authorizes Department of War as a secondary title for executivebranch communications; the statutes still control (5 U.S.C. 101; XX U.S.C. 111). If youre in DoD/DoW hows this playing out on your front line And no theres still no Department of Lawmy business card is crushed.
