US President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Friday that directs the Department of Defense to be known as the Department of War.
The move restores a name the agency last held in the 1940s and, according to the text of the order seen by the BBC, the aim is to "project strength and resolve".
The department will initially use the new name as a "secondary title" while the administration seeks congressional approval to make the change permanent.
