“I requested that his subcommittee authorize the first phase of an important 5-phase project to replace seriously deteriorated family housing at the Army War College at Carlisle Barracks, Pennsylvania, which is in my district. The first phase is a modest beginning of 27 new units costing $5.4 million. I understand that there was insufficient money to accommodate all Members' requests, however worthy. However, I have been informed that the Army intends to fund this project in the fiscal year 2004 budget that will be submitted in February 2003.
