Department of Defense Base Structure Report for Fiscal Year 1991. Supplement
Abstract
Military installations are vital to the Nation's security, and quality facilities greatly enhance the working and living conditions of our military people and their families. The base structure of the Department of Defense (DoD) comprises over 5,500 properties with almost 27 million acres of land, and has an original investment cost of roughly $69 billion. The FY 1991 facilities replacement value is estimated at $600 billion. The worldwide military base structure supports our defense population, which consists of an active force of nearly 2.1 million military personnel, 1.2 million guard and reserve members, and 1.0 million civilian employees. The Base Structure Report is prepared by DoD to (a) provide information on military installations, (b) explain and justify the relationship between the current DoD base structure and the proposed military force structure, and (c) identify base operating support costs and evaluate possible alternatives to reduce such costs.
