This aims to increase efficiency in line with Congressional and DoD objectives. More than 350 installations have been closed in five BRAC rounds: 1989, 1991, 1993, 1995 and the most recent round of BRAC completed and entered into law in November 2005.
Most insiders will acknowledge that BRAC has closed many bases...and has cost the US taxpayer billions in the process of closing those bases and upgrading the remaining bases to handle the consolidation of services.
BRAC has been a catastrophic success.
