Louisiana Units Down By 10 Fleming Sees National Guard Cut
General Fleming protests a DoD plan to cut Louisiana National Guard strength from about 86 units to 70. He forecasts a loss of about 1,100 personnel, urges revision, and notes Governor Davis opposes reductions. Louisiana officials and the National Guard Association criticize the proposed downsizing as harmful to state defense and training. The report lists units inactivated or relocated across Alexandria, Shreveport, New Orleans, and other bases as the plan shifts manpower and structure.
