AUSTIN, Texas – The U.S. Army Transformation and Training Command was officially activated during a ceremony held at Lady Bird Johnson Auditorium on Oct. 2. This new command brings together key efforts into a unified headquarters responsible for force generation, force design, and force development. Gen. David M. Hodne assumed command as the T2COM commanding general and Command Sgt. Maj. Raymond Harris assumed responsibility as the command sergeant major.
The establishment of T2COM comes after Secretary of the Army Daniel Driscoll announced an effort aimed to accelerate transformation and improve force structure to ensure the Army remains the world’s more lethal and ready land force.
The U.S. Army Recruiting Command, Combined Arms Command, and Futures and Concepts Command will function as subordinate commands to enhance the Army through unifying recruitment, training, and combat development, ensuring a cohesive and agile force ready for future challenges.
Gen. Randy George, Chief of Staff, Army, presided over the ceremony and acknowledged the need for the Army to integrate how we train, fight and modernize.
“T2COM will help our Army change how we operate. As we all know, transformation is not just about product innovation, it’s about process innovation… T2COM will help us cut our redundancy, reverse stagnation and push talent and leaders into our fighting formations,” George said.
During his remarks, Hodne outlined his vision and goals for the new command, emphasizing a focus on turning war-fighting concepts into war-winning capabilities.
“Our mission is clear. From vision to victory, we enable the Army’s continuous transformation, modernizing capabilities, developing leaders, and advancing the profession to deliver decisive readiness,” Hodne said.
The creation of T2COM represents a significant investment in the Army’s future and reflects the Army’s ongoing effort to modernize and prepare for future challenges.
