当地时间周四，特朗普总统任命美国陆军工程兵团文职领导人亚当·特尔为代理陆军部长，此前丹·德里斯科尔已于本周早些时候辞职。
特尔目前担任陆军负责民间工程的助理部长。但据陆军的一份简历显示，他曾为共和党参议员工作超过20年，并在特朗普首届任期内进入白宫，担任总统与参议院的首席联络官。
“他是一位伟大的爱国者，深受所有人尊敬，”特朗普在Truth Social的帖子中写道。
赫格斯瑟在X平台的帖子中也表达了同样的看法。
“热烈祝贺亚当。他能力出众、聪慧过人，”赫格斯瑟写道。“他确实是一位伟大的爱国者——并将立即成为@美国陆军的宝贵资产。”

德里斯科尔本周辞去了陆军最高文职领导职务，此前他与国防部长皮特·赫格斯瑟之间数月来存在幕后摩擦。这是赫格斯瑟任内又一位高级军方官员离职。
作为陆军退伍军人兼副总统JD·万斯的盟友，德里斯科尔曾制定计划改革陆军作战行动。但一位知情人士告诉哥伦比亚广播公司，他曾向特朗普政府担忧，赫格斯瑟已罢免了一些负责落实这些计划的将军。
赫格斯瑟曾在4月要求陆军参谋长兰迪·乔治将军辞职，他是德里斯科尔的密友。不到三个月后，美国陆军欧洲和非洲司令部司令克里斯·多纳休将军也提交了退役申请。
乔治和德里斯科尔去年推出了一项计划中的“陆军转型倡议”，呼吁将无人机及其他新兴技术整合到部队中，同时调整部队结构并淘汰过时装备。
乔治和多纳休还支持一个新成立的陆军无人机营，该营去年才受命汲取乌克兰激烈无人机战的经验教训。但哥伦比亚广播公司此前报道，在支持该营的军官与代理陆军参谋长克里斯托弗·拉内夫将军之间关系紧张后，陆军于上月开始计划逐步撤销该单位。
目前美国仍与伊朗处于对峙状态，大量陆军部队驻扎在中东地区，特尔即将开始领导美国规模最大的作战部队。
这场对峙严重加剧了美军关键武器装备的短缺，其中包括陆军操作的爱国者和萨德防御导弹拦截系统。
两党议员都对德里斯科尔的离职表示惋惜，一些人直接将责任归咎于赫格斯瑟。
即将退休且有时与特朗普存在分歧的北卡罗来纳州共和党参议员汤姆·蒂利斯在社交媒体上表示，赫格斯瑟“正在我们军队高层制造领导真空”。
Trump names engineering official Adam Telle as acting Army secretary, after Dan Driscoll resigns amid friction

President Trump on Thursday named Adam Telle, a civilian leader in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, as the acting Army secretary, following the resignation of Dan Driscoll earlier this week.
Telle is currently the assistant secretary of the Army for civil works. But he spent more than 20 years working for Republican senators, and worked in the White House during Mr. Trump’s first term, serving as the president’s chief liaison to the Senate, according to an Army biography.
“He is a Great Patriot, who is respected by all,” Mr. Trump wrote in a Truth Social post.
Hegseth echoed that in his own post on X.
“Huge congrats to Adam. Strong and whip smart,” Hegseth wrote. “He is indeed a great Patriot — and will be an immediate asset to the @USArmy.”

Driscoll resigned as the Army’s top civilian leader this week, following months of behind-the-scenes friction with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. It marked the latest departure of a high-level military official under Hegseth.
An Army veteran and ally of Vice President JD Vance, Driscoll had drawn up plans to transform the Army’s operations. But he shared concerns with the Trump administration that Hegseth had pushed out some of the generals responsible for implementing those plans, a source familiar with the matter told CBS News.
Hegseth asked Army Chief of Staff Gen. Randy George, a close friend of Driscoll, to step down in April. Less than three months later, the commander of U.S. Army Europe and Africa — Gen. Chris Donahue — also submitted retirement papers.
George and Driscoll rolled out a planned “Army Transformation Initiative” last year, calling for more drones and other emerging technology to be integrated into units, along with changes to force structure and the elimination of obsolete equipment.
George and Donahue were also supporters of a newly formed Army drone battalion that was tasked just last year with picking up lessons from the intense drone warfare in Ukraine. However, the Army began making plans to phase out that unit last month, CBS News has reported, following tension between the officers who supported it and acting Army Chief of Staff Gen. Christopher LaNeve.
Telle will now begin overseeing the nation’s largest fighting force at a time when the U.S. is still engaged in conflict with Iran and significant Army forces are stationed in the Middle East.
The war has significantly contributed to the U.S. military’s shortfall in critical weapons like the Patriot and THAAD defense missile interceptor systems, which are operated by the Army.
Democrats and Republicans lamented Driscoll’s departure, with some blaming Hegseth directly.
Sen. Thom Tillis, a North Carolina Republican who is retiring and sometimes has clashed with Mr. Trump, said on social media that Hegseth “is creating a leadership void at the top of our military ranks.”
