Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel to Visit Fort Bragg on Monday
As part of a tour of military bases in the southern U.S. During his visit, Hagel will meet in a town hall setting at FORSCOM with uniformed service members, military family members, wounded warriors and civilian employees..
From July 15-17, Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel will travel to Fort Bragg, N.C.; Naval Air Station Jacksonville, Fla.; Joint Base Charleston, S.C.; and Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, N.C., according to a Defense Department news release.
Over the course of this three-day domestic trip, Hagel will interact with service members, families, Department of Defense civilian employees, contractors, and local civic leaders in a variety of venues.
Given the significant impact budget reductions are having on uniformed and civilian personnel, Hagel believes it is a critical time to visit DOD locations and hear directly from the men and women of the Department of Defense.
