I support this. “Department of Defense” sounds Orwellian, like “Ministry of Truth.” Plus, it’s not even honest: call it what it actually is (and what it was called before).

Kind of reminds me of the Eddie Izzard comedy bit about Star Wars:

“That’s the Death Star? What does it do?”

“IT DOES DEATH.”

What does the Department of Defense do? IT DOES WAR. Let’s be clear about it.

Number 5 is key. This would have prevented the rot of incompetent fools that have infested our Department of Defense.
