Army-Funded Think Tank Says The Service Needs More Troops

摘要

A new analysis by RAND Corp., which is partly funded through Army coffers, recommends that Pentagon leaders pause a planned service end-strength reduction because of Russian "aggression." Timothy Bonds, vice president of the federally funded research and development center's Army Research Division and director of its Arroyo Center, presented the proposal to the National Commission on the Future of the Army at an Aug. 18 public hearing in Arlington, VA. The Arroyo Center is described on RAND's website as the Army's only such research and development center, and senior service leaders sit on the organization's policy committee.
