From the article on the last paragraph.

The school added that the old phrase would still be adorned throughout the school as it is carved all over entrances and cadets’ uniforms.

That seems to contradict the actual article you cited.
quote:
“Duty, Honor, Country is foundational to the United States Military Academy’s culture and will always remain our motto,” Gilland wrote.
They are changing the mission statement to cite this as 'Army Values'. This is quite literally fake news.
quote:
The new mission statement for the senior army leadership will now read: “To build, educate, train, and inspire the Corps of Cadets to be commissioned leaders of character committed to the Army Values and ready for a lifetime of service to the Army and Nation.’”

“Duty Honor Country is West Point’s motto and the foundation of our culture as it has been since 1898,” Kelley said. “As we have done nine times in the past century, we have updated our mission statement to now include the Army Values, loyalty, duty, respect, selfless service, honor, integrity, and personal courage.”

The neutering of our once great military continues. Meanwhile neck beards and blue hairs everywhere rejoice this move.

This is completely false. The first mission statement was put in place in 1925. And "Duty, Honor, Country" was not added to the mission statement until 1998.
Enjoy y'alls manufactured outrage.
Here is a timeline for the mission statements.
