Defense chiefs warned over possible $15 billion cut in five years
Defense Secretary Harold Brown warned the armed services they may face cuts totaling 15 to 30 billion dollars over five years as the Carter administration sets fiscal 1979 guidelines. The Navy Army and Air Force would each lose about 1 to 2 billion in the first year with similar cuts each year, risking postponement of procurement programs and reduced force readiness.
