Executive Order 14347 signed September 5, 2025: “Restoring the United States Department of War.” defense.gov immediately redirected to war.gov. Secretary Pete Hegseth changed signage outside his office same day. “DOD” officially replaced with “DOW” in all public communications. Formal rename requires an act of Congress — Rick Scott and Mike Lee introduced legislation. Estimated cost: $2 billion. Trump: “sends a message of victory.” UAP SIGNIFICANCE: The Department of War was renamed Department of Defense under the National Security Act of 1947 — the SAME legislation that established the CIA, NSC, and the institutional architecture housing the UAP control group. MJ-12 was created September 24, 1947 — within weeks of that Act passing. The original Department of War received the Roswell materials in July 1947 under its old name. Trump is symbolically restoring the name of the exact institution that received Roswell debris and housed the original control group — in the same period he announced UAP file releases. Whether symbolic or operational, the timing and the history are a direct thread. Official Pentagon website is now war.gov. Kash Patel’s FBI investigation into the 11 dead/missing scientists explicitly references “the Department of War” as a partner agency.
