Defense budget squeeze could shrink U S armed forces
The piece argues that sequestration and budget caps threaten drastic cuts to the Army and Navy, shrinking troop levels to prewar lows and risking readiness. Fort Benning in Georgia would lose 29 percent of its troops, while Alaska's Fort Elmendorf faces a 59 percent cut, affecting thousands of personnel and civilian jobs. It warns cutting too deep endangers U S security amid Ukraine, Iraq, and ISIS challenges.
