Pentagon misses deadline for barracks privatization report amid serious health problems
|
Ask Milley!
Oh...he left.
[JustTheNews] Health and safety problems at military barracks include sewage backups, mold, rodent infestations and inoperable fire safety systems.
A U.S. Government Accountability Office director highlighted the importance of the report and the missed deadline at a House Armed Services Committee panel hearing that detailed health and safety problems at military barracks, including sewage backups, mold, rodent infestations and inoperable fire safety systems. Conditions were so bad in some places that service members sometimes took "drastic action, such as getting married, just to leave the barracks," according to the report. Hundreds of thousands of U.S. troops live in barracks, which are for the most junior-ranking unmarried service members without children or other dependents.
The privatization feasibility report was required as part of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2023, which provided $838.8 billion in military funding to the Pentagon. It was due in July. But Elizabeth Field, director of Defense Capabilities and Management for the Government Accountability Office, told the House Armed Services Committee panel that the Department of Defense has yet to provide a time table for completing the report.
"We could not get any clear information from the department on when it will be delivered," she said.
