    U.S. Army Western Hemisphere Command

    U.S. Army Gen. Joseph A. Ryan, U.S. Army Western Hemisphere Command Commanding General, listens to remarks during the FORSCOM Transition of Command Ceremony at Fort Bragg, N.C., Dec. 5, 2025. His address emphasized the importance of teamwork and continuity as the Army transitions and he takes command of the newly formed USAWHC. 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.
