Base Closing Announcement May Come Early

Base Closing Announcement May Come Early

The Pentagon is likely to move up its date for announcing what military bases will be closed or realigned. The list could be announced as early as Tuesday, May 10. The recommendations will be published on the Defense Department's Web site immediately after Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld holds a press conference to announce them. A separate Web site will be created to provide personnel information for federal employees whose bases are closing or whose jobs are being relocated.
