Here’s my full keynote remarks from earlier today at @AUSAorg.
Acting Secretary of the Army retweeted
.@msstate is leading the way in developing the next generation of leaders who will serve and lead our nation.
We’re proud to welcome them into America’s Corps of Cadets. 🇺🇸
Andrew Rendon, Mississippi State executive director of Veterans and Military Affairs, is transitioning into a new assistant vice president role at the university.
In this newly created position, Rendon will oversee MSU’s military liaison activities with the U.S. Department of War and its recently formed Corp of Cadets, while also advancing the university’s work and reputation as a major contributor to national security initiatives and workforce development.

Excellent choice!
I have officially appointed @Dakota_Meyer to serve as my Senior Advisor for the Barracks Task Force.
Dakota will represent my office at installations across the country—going directly to our warfighters, identifying what’s broken, and ensuring we FIX our barracks.
Our warriors deserve nothing less.

Acting @SecArmy Adam Telle and Acting Chief of Staff GEN Chris LaNeve were on the ground today at LSU vs Mississippi State to spotlight both schools joining @SecWar’s groundbreaking America’s Corps of Cadets initiative.
This historic effort will broaden the pipeline of patriotic leaders and lethal warfighters ready to defend the nation and the American Dream.
Cadets of @LSU and @msstate — you’ve answered the call. We salute you. 🫡

61 yard fullback touchdown for Army is as American as it gets 🇺🇸
So proud to be with @lagovjefflandry & Gen. LaNeve to pay tribute to the outstanding service of LTC (ret.) John Purdy and to recognize @LSU and @msstate for their leadership in re-establishing their storied Corps of Cadets in partnership with @SecWar.
Honored to join @SecArmy in presenting Lieutenant Colonel John Purdy with the Meritorious Public Service Medal.
A Vietnam veteran who earned 6 bronze stars, Lt. Col Purdy represents the very best of our Nation.
Louisiana, this is an American hero!
Secretary Hegseth and @POTUS have provided us with unprecedented top cover to make the rapid changes needed to modernize the Joint Force.
Grateful that @SecWar, @SECNAV, @SecAFOfficial, and @ASWAndersonSOF were able to join us at #AUSA2026 to highlight how we’re delivering for our warfighters.
“We’re making a huge bet on Next Generation Command and Control. I call this the magic in the middle. When you think about the Army, what we deliver to the Joint Force is scale and mass.”
“Our greatest strategic advantage in America, in addition to our deep capital markets… is the ingenuity that our system of government has allowed to take place within the American heart... That's something that no one else has.”
Just last night, in response to @SecWar’s establishment of Autonomous Warfare Command, the @USArmy announced Futures and Autonomous Systems Command (FASCOM).
This is how we couple all of the great work that's happening with our vast resources and centralize them so we can scale and coordinate.
We're pushing autonomy down into our units, but when it comes to acquisition and making sure our left hand knows what the right hand is doing, this happens in FASCOM, and feeds up into AutoWarCom and across the services.
Live at #AUSA2026
The Army is open for business!
We are opening up our doors to partner with American innovators.
.@OwenWest91 "The United States INVENTED the drone, but the drone was not cheapened by scaling and given to our ground forces. From your position now—why was this?
.@SECWAR "Our building, our process—a political system that incentivizes existing efforts and existing programs and the ability to keep funding them and iterating on them and PREVENTING NEW ENTRANTS IN COMPETITION."
This is a demonstration of our unity.
Under @POTUS's and @SecWar’s leadership, @SECNAV, @SecAFOfficial, @ASWAndersonSOF, and I will together to equip our service members with every competitive advantage they need to remain the most lethal and capable fighting force the world has ever seen.
.@SeanParnellASW "THIS DEPARTMENT IS IN LOCKSTEP.
EVERY BRANCH. EVERY AGENCY. EVERY LEADER IS UNIFIED BEHIND ONE SINGULAR OBJECTIVE:
PUTTING BETTER CAPABILITIES IN THE HANDS OF OUR TROOPS FASTER."
