I sure as hell am. The un-official word is that we're moving to Huntsville, AL. I should say MDA is moving because there's no way I am.

edit: there are 22,000 jobs leaving Northern VA because of the BRAC

Looks like were are gaining here.

We're gaining here too. Losing military but gaining civ. jobs.

New London closing surprised me, more that I never thought about it. All that appears to be going to King's Bay in Georgia. Better weather, cheaper(?). Makes sense.

The big loss at Pope AFB surprised me especially with a substantial growth at Bragg. AF guys shed any light on that?

The big growth at Forts Lee and Belvoir are also a little surprising. I wonder what that is.

And the closing of Navy Reserve Centers in Iowa, what a travisty.

I'm guessing some of it's the relocation of DoD offices currently leasing office-space in Arlington.

And the closing of Navy Reserve Centers in Iowa, what a travisty.

How are they getting all those ships out of Iowa?

Did I see Portsmouth Naval Shipyard on the list? That's a pretty significant loss for southern Maine / New Hampshire seacoast areas.
