Declassification of the Department of War Internal After-Action Review of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 Vaccine Mandate Report

View Online IMMEDIATE RELEASE Declassification of the Department of War Internal After-Action Review of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 Vaccine Mandate Report July 15, 2026 As part of the Department of War's continuous effort to rebuild trust with Service members discharged under the COVID-19 vaccine mandate, Secretary Pete Hegseth directed the National Academy of Public Administration (NAPA) to conduct an After-Action Review (AAR) capturing lessons learned to improve future policy. Additionally, due to President Trump's and Secretary Hegseth's commitment to accountability and transparency, the Department will publicly publish the review's findings. To supplement NAPA, the Under Secretary of War for Personnel and Readiness will convene an internal panel of DoW military and civilian employees. The objective of this panel is to review the official decisions, coordination, planning, and execution of the COVID-19 vaccine mandate from January 2020 through January 2023. "The Department is fully committed to restoring honor and rebuilding trust with the warfighters impacted by the COVID-19 vaccine mandate," said Under Secretary of War for Personnel and Readiness Anthony J. Tata. Under the leadership of President Trump and Secretary Hegseth, we continue to prioritize reinstatement, deliver remedies, and establish permanent safeguards against future mandates." Tata added that, "the actions detailed in these memorandums reflect our ongoing dedication to transparency and accountability. By having members of the affected community lead the internal after-action review and further analyze how the COVID-19 vaccine mandate influenced decision-making and readiness—and making the findings public—we will ensure that the Department learns from the past and does not repeat these mistakes in the future." The memorandum on the Review of the Department of War Coronavirus Disease 2019 Vaccine Mandate is available here. The memorandum on the Declassification of the Department of War Internal After-Action Review of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 Vaccine Mandate Report is available here.

Readout of Secretary of War Pete Hegseth's Meeting With Iraqi Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi

View Online IMMEDIATE RELEASE Readout of Secretary of War Pete Hegseth's Meeting With Iraqi Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi July 14, 2026 Today at the Pentagon following meetings in the Oval Office, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth met with Iraqi Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi to discuss the Global Coalition to Defeat ISIS, the end of the Operation INHERENT RESOLVE mission and the future of the U.S.-Iraq relationship. Secretary Hegseth reaffirmed the United States' intent to fully implement the September 2024 Joint Statement Announcing the Timeline for the End of the Military Mission of the Global Coalition to Defeat ISIS in Iraq, ending the Operation INHERENT RESOLVE mission by September 30. The United States, Iraq, and Coalition partners have achieved tremendous success in defeating ISIS and now the Iraqi Security Forces, including the Peshmerga and other Iraqi Kurdistan Region security forces, will lead the fight against terrorists in Iraq. Secretary Hegseth made clear that building a normal U.S.-Iraq bilateral defense relationship requires a secure environment free from terrorist coercion. Following more than 600 attacks on U.S. citizens and facilities in Iraq by Iran-aligned terrorist militias between February and April 2026, the Secretary welcomed the Iraq-led initiative to disarm these malign actors and to assert Iraq's sovereignty and the supremacy of its democratic leadership over all armed actors. The two leaders also discussed how a sovereign, stable, and strong Iraq paves the way for mutually beneficial commercial and defense cooperation. Secretary Hegseth and Prime Minister Zaidi agreed to continue to work together, and senior U.S. and Iraqi defense officials met subsequently for detailed discussions.
