Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth signed a memorandum which indicated his department plans to "realign" the size of its civilian workforce and "restructure" it to "supercharge" it.

The memo instructs the undersecretary of defense for personnel and readiness to reopen a deferred resignation program for nearly 900,000 full-time DOD employees.

It calls for bureaucracy to be cut, duplicative efforts removed and more technical solutions found, adding: "The net effect will be a reduction".
