BRAC 2005 List

I heard on the radio that the BRAC 2005 list was going to be released
sometime this week. Anyone got a link?

Rumor has it that Los Angeles Air Force Base (Station?) is on the list. It
is mainly a contract administration office, no aircraft located there.
Haven't heard anything about Naval bases or Marine Corps facilities.

The list is due out in mid May. Your source is mistaken. Of course, there
are a lot of bogus "lists" about. I've never heard of LAAFB.

My ignorance abounds! I can well imagine how the base was established, but
I find it interesting it's maintained its support roles for so many years in
a leaner/meaner environment.

It's the main contracting and contract oversight for Space Command.
Lots of satellite and missile program offices located there.
Very handy to have Lockheed, Raytheon, Northrop-Grumman (ex-TRW)
Boeing (also ex-Hughes Space) all within a stone's throw (literally!)
The Colorado congressional delegation has been trying for years to
close it down, but the synergy between the base and the local
contractors is too real.

Funny thing is, the picture on the web site is Ft MacArthur in
San Pedro, which is housing for the base. The base itself is in
El Segundo, but is much less photogenic.
