Army Navy Merger Plans Fade This Year
Washington reports that Army-Navy merger prospects for the year have faded as supporters deem the new plan by President Truman too little and too late. Critics warn against one man control while Congress nears year end with little chance of action. The plan retains the joint chiefs of staff and a single Department of National Defense, with limited scope for the Marine Corps within the naval service.
