Gov. M. Jodi Rell (R) announced Monday that Connecticut is taking the Pentagon and the BRAC commission to court over the decision to remove the A-10 aircraft from the Connecticut Air National Guard’s 103rd Fighter Wing. Although the Bradley Airport facility is not slated to close, the move would leave the state without an ANG flying mission. It is the fourth state to go to court over a BRAC decision. The others: Pennsylvania, Illinois, and Tennessee.
A massive contract to manage thousands of PCS moves failed because U.S. Transportation Command did not adequately oversee the results, according to the Government Accountability Office.
