    U.S. Army activates U.S. Army Western Hemisphere Command in Historic Transition Ceremony

    U.S. Army Gen. Andrew P. Poppas, outgoing U.S. Army Forces Command Commanding General, speaks with guests during the FORSCOM Transition of Command ceremony at Fort Bragg, N.C., Dec. 5, 2025. The address marked a milestone in Army history, honoring tradition while formally concluding his leadership of FORSCOM. The U.S. Army Western Hemisphere Command serves as the Theater Army for both U.S. Northern Command and U.S. Southern Command. This newly activated command unifies U.S. Army Forces Command, U.S. Army North, and U.S. Army South as the Army Service Component Command for the Western Hemisphere. Its missions include homeland defense, crisis response, regional security cooperation, and defense support to civil authorities, while also serving as the Army's immediate response force for the region.
