I have long stated that just as important as it is to provide our service members with new, modernized equipment, we must fully maintain the assets that we already have.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. You always make my day.

I think it is fair to ask if the Army is, in fact, just creating more overhead that will further slow an already cumbersome process.
