List Of Base Closings In Alphabetical Order
- Thread starter AC/DC
- Start date
Will someone explain how an additional 226 people are going to buy/live in all the new housing being built in ST. Mary's? At last count there are 1000+ new homes slated in the Town of Leonardtown alone, this does not even count any new developments outside the town limits.huntr1 said:
This list (DOD List) goes to the BRAC Commission now. I think it is a nine-member panel that can with 5 votes add a base or with 7 votes remove a base from this list. They then forward their list to GW by 8 September and he will have until 23 September to approve the list in it's entirety and forward it to Congress which will then have 45 legislative days to approve or deny the entire list.alex said:

I think its the other way around 5 votes to remove, and 7 to add, but either way, the list isn't final yetKen King said:

What, is there some law somewhere that only employees of PAX can live in St. Mary's?alex said:
Does that mean I have to move since I work in Silver Spring?In other words, build the houses and the people will come to buy them. In fact, they will come in DROVES to buy them in such numbers that they will be sold out before they are even close to done building.
This only leaves us with 4 military bases in Tucson!!! Yeah, but will they come with the big salaries to pay the big $$ alot of these homes are going for? However, Ken answered my question since I do not work with or for the DOD .huntr1 said:What, is there some law somewhere that only employees of PAX can live in St. Mary's?

Realignment refers to the moving around and redistributions of certain functions among various installations. For instance, the Joint Strike Fighter pilot's school will be taught at one Air Force base, instead of the more traditional approach of having a separate school and location for each branch of service. Walter Reed is going to move into the Bethesda Naval hospital, and that facility (when the upgrades are finished) will be the joint military medical center. The submairne base at New London, CT will close, but the submarine base at Groton (just up the Thames river a couple of miles) will absorb whatever is left without a home there. I saw at least a few reserve training centers and recruiting centers consolidated into single locations in a number of states.aps45819 said:
NESEA was technically absorbed by (can't remember the current name) NAVELEX in Charleston. The Webster Field facility was absorbed by PAX. The Shipboard Comms, Air Traffic Control, etc. activities stayed there, but their upper management moved. Nothing significant there, except that the commands could elect to consolidate their activities and pull out of Webster. So Webster experienced a realignment.
