White paper that determines a method for quickly elevating intra-military department coordination candidate recommendation conflicts needs to be identified so that decision makers can move quickly to resolve them.

Integration of Military Department recommendations with JCSG recommendations and with each other has yet to begin. This process will be time consuming and the overall DoD story needs to be pulled together.

The BRAC Red Team believes the Air Force presentations give the perception that in many cases the Air Force is using BRAC only to move aircraft and gain MILCON funding rather than reducing excess infrastructure. Discussion within the Red Team has produced several potential routes to dispel such a perception and gain a more favorable reception for the Air Force package.

Almost all candidate recommendations are not in the correct format for submission. Also recommended justification phrases should be removed from candidate recommendation statements.
