Cannon Individual Letters - 172

I am very concerned about the Department of Defense's recommendation that Cannon Air Force Base should be closed. Cannon Air Force Base should not be on the BRAC closure list for many reasons. Listed below are just a few reasons on why Cannon Air Force should not be on the list: Cannon does not fit the criteria provided for base closure. The weather in Eastern New Mexico provides year round training ability. Cannon has the space and facilities to accommodate joint war-fighting, training, and readiness as was evidenced by the recent joint training effort between Cannon and the US Navy.
