Disambiguation: The Department of the Army (also called Department of War in historical context) is the civilian-led administrative department that organizes, trains, and equips the United States Army—distinct from the Army itself as an operational force. Not to be confused with the Army as a combat organization.

The Department of the Army is one of three military departments within the U.S. Department of Defense, responsible for the organization, training, and equipping of the United States Army. Formally established under the National Security Act of 1947 (succeeding the Department of War), though the Army as an institution dates to 1775. Led by a civilian Secretary of the Army and a military Chief of Staff of the Army. Headquartered at The Pentagon in Arlington County, Virginia, with an annual budget exceeding $174 billion. As of May 2026, the Department of War is coordinating the PURSUE (Presidential Unsealing and Reporting System for UAP Encounters) multiagency effort to declassify and publicly release historically significant UAP/UFO-related documents.
