Former officials urge House committee to 'keep on pushing' defense reform

摘要

Former senior Defense Department officials on April 4 urged the House Armed Services Committee to continue its efforts to reform the department, praising past work and pointing to new focus areas. John Hamre, who previously served as deputy defense secretary and now leads the Center for Strategic and International Studies, said the House committee's work on acquisition reform fixed some of the mistakes made when he worked as a Senate Armed Services Committee staff member.
