Bases Added to Rumsfeld Closure List by Independent Commission
An independent commission adds eight U.S. bases to closings or reductions and flags several small installations for possible shutdowns. It also keeps four large bases off the list, signaling divergence from Defense Secretary Rumsfeld’s May plan and setting final decisions for next month. The panel may also propose consolidations across education and medical services as it weighs closures at Oceana Virginia and Pope NC, among others.
