Cuts Threaten Overseas Forces
Gen. Maxwell D. Taylor testified that further Army manpower cuts would force reductions in overseas deployments due to rotating troop assignments. He noted the Army now maintains about 40 percent overseas, with 69 percent at home possible, and warned that a strength drawdown could shrink overseas forces, as the Pentagon cites no fixed targets. The Army’s present strength is about 1,039,000, with over 200,000 deployed overseas in Europe.
