Historic U.S. Army post slated for closure

Laurence points out a beloved Army base that's scheduled for closure:

Shock swept across local Army base Camp Swampy as the list of proposed base closures was released by the Pentagon today to the Base Realignment and Closure Commission. "This place is like a second home to me," said Private B. Bailey. "I've left blood, sweat, tears, and some teeth on every square inch of this camp, thanks to the Sarge. It'll be tough leaving it all behind." Camp Swampy was listed near the top of 775 facilities for minor closures and realignments, having been frequently cited for low-performance, horrible combat readiness, and rampant sexual harassment scandals.
Heh.
