Have you noticed the lack of official Pentagon comment on the BRAC commission final recommendations last week? The jury must still be out in DOD minds. Defense Secretary Rumsfeld said Monday that he has yet to decide whether he will recommend President Bush approve the finalized list, according to the Associated Press. Asked for comment during a visit to the Army training center at Ft. Irwin, Calif., Monday, he said the commissioners emphasized economics more than military value.
Upon assuming his new post, Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force David Wolfe prioritized high standards while pledging to ensure Airmen, of all specialties, get the equipment they need to project U.S. airpower.
