Download or read book Military Base Closure written by David S. Sorenson and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2006-11-30 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1988 and 1995, the Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) Commission closed down 97 bases and realigned over 350 other bases. A hot button topic in the military field, base-closings is an important issue that affects not only soldiers, but ordinary citizens as well. Due to their massive economic significance for local and regional communities, military bases impact thousands of people, and thus encompass various political interests between local, state, and national levels. This reference work investigates the politics and key political figures involved in base-closing decisions, and considers various reasons why bases have been and continue to be closed down. An overview of the U.S. military base infrastructure as well as primary documents is included to help students understand the BRAC Commission process between 1988-2005. The book also analyzes the closure of overseas bases outside of the BRAC process. Ideal for high school, undergraduate, and graduate students, this comprehensive handbook is the only complete reference guide to military base closings.

Download or read book Military Base Realignments and Closures written by Brian J. Lepore and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2009-05 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 2005 Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) round is the biggest, most complex, and costliest BRAC round ever. In addition to base closures, many recommendations involve realignments, such as returning forces to the U.S. from bases overseas and creating joint bases. However, anticipated savings remained an important consideration in justifying the need for the 2005 BRAC round. This report assessed: (1) challenges that might affect timely completion of recommendations; (2) any changes in DoD's reported cost and savings estimates since FY 2008; and (3) the potential for estimates to continue to change. Includes recommendations. Charts and tables.

It examines relevant factors of interest, not only in regard to the current BRAC round, but also to the past four rounds. It should be noted that the 2005 Commission is likely to follow procedures that are, in large part, similar to those of the past three BRAC rounds.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On November 15, 2002, Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld announced the first steps in implementing the new 2005 base realignment and closure (BRAC) law. These included development of a force structure plan, comprehensive inventory of military installations, and establishment of criteria for selecting bases for closure and realignment. The Secretary of Defense submitted a report to Congress on March 23, 2004, confirming the need for a further BRAC round and certifying that an additional round of closures and realignments would result in annual net savings, over a period ending no later than FY2011. On May 20, 2004, the House of Representatives voted 259 to 162 to delay base closings until 2007. In response to this action, the White House immediately released a statement declaring that the Secretary of Defense, and other senior advisers, would urge the President to veto any bill that "weakened, delayed, or repealed" the current base closure authority. On October 8, 2004, Senate and the House conferees reached agreement on the National Defense Authorization Act for FY2005, which included continued support of DOD's authority to conduct a round of closures and realignments in 2005. Senator John Warner stated that it was essential to allow ...

Download or read book Military Base Realignments and Closures: Estimated Costs Have Increased and Estimated Savings Have Decreased written by and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2007 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Department of Defense (DoD) is currently implementing recommendations from the 2005 Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) round, which is the fifth round undertaken by DoD since 1988. The 2005 round is, by GAO's assessment, the biggest, most complex, and costliest BRAC round ever, in part because, unlike previous rounds, the Secretary of Defense viewed the 2005 round as an opportunity not only to achieve savings but also to assist in transforming the department. GAO's testimony addresses the following: (1) GAO's role in the BRAC process, and (2) how DoD's current cost and savings estimates to implement the 2005 recommendations compare to the 2005 Defense Base Closure and Realignment Commission's (the Commission) cost and savings estimates. This testimony is based primarily on the report GAO issued yesterday (GAO-08-159) on the overall changes to DoD's cost and savings estimates for the 2005 BRAC round. To analyze these changes, GAO compared the Commission's estimates in its 2005 report to DoD's estimates in its fiscal year 2008 BRAC budget submission. This testimony is also based on several reports GAO has issued on the implementation of selected recommendations, and GAO's prior work assessing the 2005 decision making process. GAO's work was performed in accordance with generally accepted government auditing standards.

Download or read book Military Base Realignments and Closures written by Brian J. Lepore and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2010-11 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 2005 Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) round is the 5th such round undertaken by DoD since 1988 and is the biggest, most complex, and costliest BRAC round ever. With this BRAC round, the DoD plans to execute hundreds of BRAC actions affecting over 800 defense locations, relocate over 123,000 personnel, and spend over $35 billion -- an unprecedented amount, given that DoD has spent nearly $26 billion to implement the four previous BRAC rounds combined. This report assesses: (1) the challenges DoD faces in implementing BRAC recommendations; and (2) DoD's efforts to mitigate any challenges, and the extent to which any costs related to those mitigation efforts are being reported as BRAC costs. Illustrations.

Book excerpt: The 2005 Base Realignment and Closure Rounds (BRAC) round was the biggest, most complex, costliest ever. The Sec. of Defense saw BRAC 2005 as a unique opportunity to adjust the Dept. of Defense’s (DOD’s) base structure to meet new challenges, such as international terrorism and weapons of mass destruction, and to meet future challenges, such as designating where forces returning from overseas would be located. By June 2012, BRAC implementation costs grew to about $35 billion, exceeding the initial 2005 estimate of $21 billion by 67%. DOD asked for two more rounds of BRAC in 2013 and 2015. This report discusses lessons learned that could be applied if Congress chooses to authorize future BRAC rounds. It assessed (1) how DOD estimated BRAC costs and savings and any ways its methodology could be improved; (2) OSD leadership over BRAC 2005; and (3) any legislative changes Congress may wish to make that could enhance oversight of any future round. Tables and figures. This is a print on demand report.

Download or read book Military bases analysis of DOD's 2005 selection process and recommendations for base closures and realignments : report to the congressional committees. written by and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2005 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On May 13, 2005, the Secretary of Defense submitted proposed base realignment and closure (BRAC) actions to an independent commission for its review. The Commission must submit its recommendations to the President by September 8, 2005, for his acceptance or rejection in their entirety. Congress has final action to accept or reject these recommendations in their entirety later this year. The law required that GAO issue a report on the Department of Defense's (DoD) recommendations and selection process by July 1, 2005. GAO's objectives for this report were as follows: (1) determine the extent to which DoD's proposals achieved its stated BRAC goals, (2) analyze whether the process for developing recommendations was logical, and (3) identify issues with the recommendations that may warrant further attention. Time constraints limited GAO's ability to examine implementation details of most of the individual recommended actions. DoD had varying success in achieving its 2005 BRAC goals of reducing excess infrastructure and producing savings, furthering transformation, and fostering jointness. While DoD proposed a record number of closures and realignments, exceeding all prior BRAC rounds combined, many proposals focused on reserve bases and relatively few on closing active bases. Projected savings are almost equally large, but most savings are derived from 10 percent of the recommendations. While GAO believes savings would be achieved, overall up-front investment costs of an estimated $24 billion are required, and there are clear limitations associated with DoD's projection of nearly $50 billion in savings over a 20-year period. Much of the projected net annual recurring savings (47 percent) is associated with eliminating jobs currently held by military personnel. However, rather than reducing end-strength levels, DoD indicates the positions are expected to be reassigned to other areas, which may enhance capabilities but also limit dollar savings available for other use7.
Download or read book Blazing Skies written by John A. Hamilton and published by Department of the Army. This book was released on 2009-05-13 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is an authoritative history on the Army Air Defense Artillery Branch on Fort Bliss, Texas. Fort Bliss in 1940 was a cavalry post located on the Texas border. The post itself occupied the sixth location of what had been called Fort Bliss. In the summer of 1940 a number of Army National Guard antiaircraft regiments were called to active duty to spend one year protecting American cities and territories from air attack. In September the first antiaircraft regiment, the 202nd Coast Artillery (Antiaircraft) Regiment, arrived at Fort Bliss. Over the next four years the post became an antiaircraft training center and finally the Army antiaircraft training center. After the war, Fort Bliss became the premier guided missile testing and training center for the Army. All of the Nike missile battalions deployed to protect American cities during the Cold War trained there. As time passed, Fort Bliss expanded to 1.1 million acres, one of the largest Army posts in the world. By 1946, the antiaircraft arm was the owner of Fort Bliss. By 1957, the post had become the Air Defense Center and School for the United States Army. This book is the story of that progression until the Base Realignment and Closure announcement in 2005. By 2011, the Air Defense Artillery Center and School will be located at Fort Sill, Oklahoma. This will end the era of Air Defense Artillery ownership of Fort Bliss, Texas
