In this way, we are increasing the size of the joint forces and redirecting the focus where it belongs: on the defense of the homeland and our hemisphere, while simultaneously surpassing every global threat. The United States will bring home tens of thousands of its soldiers who are currently stationed in bases abroad, announced U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hagseth at the Marine base in Quantico, Virginia.
