Officials Can't Tell the BRAC Without a Score Card
posted 1:55 pm Sun October 14, 2007 - ABERDEEN, Md.
Even military and government officials closely involved with base realignment plans in Maryland can't keep up with the mind-numbing acronyms. The 12-page booklet called BRACANYMS was prepared by a regional partnership of state and local agencies working to prepare for the influx of jobs and people. Baltimore County's Economic Development Department paid for publication of 10,000 copies.
Base realignment is expected to bring about 8,000 jobs from Fort Monmouth, New Jersey to Aberdeen Proving Ground, and 6,000 from Fort Belvoir in northern Virginia to Fort Meade.
