Overseas Dollar Cutback Could Trim Defense Costs
Washington AP reports a Defense Department three year plan to cut the overseas dollar drain by about 900 million dollars.

It also weighs moving prefabricated housing to the U.S. for shipment abroad. The proposal would not halt dependents overseas as rotating 1500 man Army battle groups to Europe is tested with no depedent ban.
