It is led by the Secretary of the Army (currently Daniel P. Driscoll, confirmed February 25, 2025) and maintains its headquarters at The Pentagon in Arlington County, Virginia. The department oversees approximately one million active, reserve, and National Guard soldiers, plus over 265,000 civilian employees, with an annual budget of $174.7 billion. The Department of the Army participates in U.S. government UFO/UAP investigation efforts and was involved in the May 2026 PURSUE (Presidential Unsealing and Reporting System for UAP Encounters) declassification initiative.
