The Army does GREAT on the environment. Want to see deer? Drive around on an Army fort, they're all over the place.

If they seriously cared aboout the environment in the Sierra Vista area, they'd demand to have the illegal swarm stopped from trashing the countryside. Maybe they should sue Mexico.

I have to agree with you on this, though my experience is limited. I visited my sister and her husband, who was stationed at Minot AFB back in '99. I was utterly astounded at the green condition of the base and the wildlife there. HUGE jackrabbits wandering fearlessly everywhere, etc. The military neighborhood put to shame every similar private urban neighborhood I've ever seen. The residents obviously took great pride in their yards, and this at a time when the Clinton presidency was causing very low morale in the military.

I and many others on FR like HiJinx and Spiff are on Ft Huachuca on a regular basis so we know what you are saying. The EnviroTaliban is silent on the illegal issue despite the damage that is being done with the trash and leaving "warming fires" unattended to start conflagrations. No, I take that back, they are not truly silent, they actually sent a rep to the Las Vegas protest of Mr Gilcrest to take the side of the illegals.
