Too bad ellswoth AF base is being closed, and the Duluth MN ANG base, and Fort snelling in St Paul is being reduced

I know a lot of civilians that work on Otis. It sucks for them because they're out of the job. The soldiers will probly be relocated.

And the government is opening another base right outside of Boston. They're probly doing it i case of a ground attack on a boston building

That's a big list.

I wonder how many of the recommended will actually be closed.

It's almost pointless I think, because in the future, they'll probably have to either open those back up, or expand our exisiting facilities to make up for the less places available to house service members.
