Dang---I count 4 closures for Texas and ONLY l for NEW YORK-what is up with that!

California got hit hard also--

jeez, what does Clinton and Schumer have on this Administration? or does New York not have many military bases?

Beale and Kirtland AFBs? Those are very important are they not? Wow.

And Closing down San Diego? Um, Isnt that were the bulk of our Marines graduate from? My understanding is that you only go to Paris Island if you signed up from the original 13 states.

Wow, oh wow, this does not look good.

Forgot to add the Redstone Arsenal. That is part of the Marshal flight center/ where NASA is located.

For what ever reason, these rounds of base closings look to hurt us.

Why are we closing these bases down again?

Ellsworth. I guess we'll get more Bombers here, unless they meant to realign at Ellsworth. Of course this list could be completely B.S.

I really hate to say this, but I hope we find a way to fight a few of these base closings. I am sure that some are needed - but some of the bases scheduled to close - i am just dumb founded.

Then again, I am dumb founded to hear that some people want to replace the M-1A1/2 with nothing more than a Striker with a big gun on top.

Maybe San Diego will finally find a place for that new airport it's been "studying" for the past 30 years.

Frankly, there are no surprise here. Every one of these bases has been in the cross hairs for some time and, in spite of protestations, good arguments have long been made for this action in each and every case.

I hope they're keeping Area 51 open. I mean, geeze, what would they do with the aliens if they closed it?
