This is some of that same old "switch-a-roo" bull.
The savings, Total, will equal around 2 million bucks, which is WAY under an hour of war cost and equal to a few hours of fighter jet training for 5-6 people.
The aggravating thing is it's just another con-job of "Look this way" (Well, Martha, I see the Military is really starting to tighten their belt...even the soldiers are sacrificing their fourth of July entertainment)
NO, NO...it doesn't amount to beans and some service people just MIGHT like to take their families to a Fireworks show that night.
I don't even know anybody that's in the service but I think this ""Cut" is astonishingly ridiculous.
