DoD-style daily contract announcements typically list the awarded contractor(s) name(s); the dollar value of the award or modification; a short description of the goods/services; the contract number; the contracting activity (which office made the award); location(s) of performance; estimated completion date; and funding/fiscal-year and procurement type information. (Some entries also note if the award is a sole-source, set-aside, or contains options.)
Use the direct URL in the article (https://www.war.gov/News/Contracts/Contract/Article/4389804/contracts-for-jan-26-2026/). Alternatively, go to the site’s Contracts landing page (War.gov News → Contracts) and navigate by date or use the site search for “Contracts Jan. 26, 2026.” If War.gov blocks access, the Department of Defense’s Contracts page (defense.gov/News/Contracts) provides the same daily contract notices.

The “Department of War” label in this article appears to be a site-specific naming convention; the content and release format match U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) contract announcements. The U.S. federal agency responsible for these contract listings is the Department of Defense (Defense.gov).
If metadata shows author=None and source=None it means no individual author or external source was credited in the feed item; DoD/agency daily contract posts are typically produced by a press office or automated feed and often publish with no byline. This is common for routine government announcement feeds.
is_perma_link: 'false' in the guid attributes indicates the RSS/guid value is not guaranteed to be a permanent URL; it’s an identifier for the feed item rather than a stable permalink. The posted link itself (the page URL) is still the reference to use; but a guid marked non-permanent means the feed GUID shouldn’t be relied on as an eternal stable link.
