New Cuts In Defense Budget Shows 1997 Plan
The Clinton administration proposed a 1997 Defense Department budget of 242.6 billion dollars, a 6 percent decrease from this year. It aims to pull U.S. ground forces from Bosnia by December and slow the procurement of new weapons before a planned uptick in 1998. The plan includes a 3 percent pay raise for military and civilian staff, stable Army and Marine forces, and reductions in Air Force, Navy, reserve, and civilian payrolls. Pentagon emphasizes readiness per member despite overall spending decline as Republicans question modernization.
