The U.S. Department of Defense will restore the historical name "War Department."

The Pentagon will now have a third name: the Department of War!

​The President of the United States will sign an order today to restore the historical name of the U.S. Department of Defense, "Department of War," according to a memo from the White House. The Pentagon will not cancel the name of the U.S. Department of Defense, but will add "Department of War" as an alternative name. However, the official introduction of Hagel will be corrected from "Defense Secretary Hagel" to "Secretary of War Hagel."

​At this point, in addition to the common name "Pentagon," the U.S. Department of Defense will have three names simultaneously.
