华盛顿9月28日电（路透社）——两名美国官员周二向路透社透露，美国国防部长皮特·赫格斯塞思将在弗吉尼亚州匡蒂科向数百名初级军人发表讲话时，宣布将将军官和海军上将的岗位数量削减20%。
赫格斯塞思将于周三在数百名初级军官和应征官员面前发表演讲，向他们介绍他对军方的优先事项安排。

这些要求匿名的官员表示，赫格斯塞思将宣布计划将将官和 flag 军官的编制削减20%。这些军官指的是一星至四星的将军和海军上将。这一数字较赫格斯塞思去年提出的至少10%的削减幅度有所提高。
其中一名官员表示，此次削减并非解雇人员，而是部分未来岗位的军衔将发生调整，同时取消部分编制。
赫格斯塞思已迅速着手改组国防部，解雇了全军多名高级军官，并处理了特定的人事问题。去年，他下令将四星军官的数量削减20%。
此次周三的活动距赫格斯塞思去年在匡蒂科的演讲已有一年，当时他在美军将官和海军上将面前抨击“臃肿的将军”以及多元化举措。
去年，美国总统唐纳德·特朗普也曾在匡蒂科发表演讲，并提出将部署美军至美国城市“作为我们军队的训练场”的想法。
身为前福克斯新闻主持人的赫格斯塞思与前真人秀明星特朗普的此番言论，都带有真人秀节目的风格，当时美国高级军事官员都是在短时间内被召集到场的。
赫格斯塞思当时在一个坐满了从全球各地赶来的高级军官的礼堂中，为自己解雇将官的行为辩护，其中包括美国最高级别的黑人将军以及海军最高级别的女性上将。他表示，被他解职的军官是腐败文化的一部分。
“如果我今天说的话让你心里一沉，那么你应该做体面的事，主动辞职。”赫格斯塞思说道。

WASHINGTON, Sept 28 (Reuters) – US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is set to announce a 20% cut in the number of positions for generals and admirals when he speaks with hundreds of junior service members at Quantico, Virginia, two U.S. officials told Reuters on Tuesday.
Hegseth will give a speech on Wednesday in front of hundreds of junior officers and enlisted officials, updating them on his priorities for the military.
The Misinformation Monitor newsletter rounds up international misinformation narratives, with a “Real or Fake?” quiz in every edition. Sign up here.
The officials, speaking on the condition of anonymity, said Hegseth would say that he plans to cut the billets for general and flag officers by 20%. Those are one- to four-star generals and admirals. That is an increase from the minimum 10-percent cut Hegseth laid out last year.
Rather than firing people, one of the officials said, the rank of some future jobs would change while billets for others would be canceled.
Hegseth has moved quickly to reshape the department, firing senior officers across the military and dealing with niche personnel issues. Last year, he ordered a 20% reduction in the number of four-star officers.
The event on Wednesday comes a year after Hegseth slammed “fat generals” and diversity initiatives in front of US military generals and admirals during a speech at Quantico.
Last year, US President Donald Trump also delivered an address at Quantico and floated the idea of using deployments to US cities “as training grounds for our military.”
The remarks by Hegseth, a former Fox News personality, and Trump, a former reality television star, resembled a reality TV format, as top US military officials were summoned on short notice.
Addressing an auditorium full of top brass who flew in from around the world at the time, Hegseth defended his firings of flag officers, including the top US general, who is Black, and the Navy’s top admiral, who is a woman. He said the officers he relieved were part of a broken culture.
“If the words I’m speaking today are making your hearts sink, then you should do the honorable thing and resign,” Hegseth said.
