1100 Captains are to be removed from active duty and 500 Majors. This is to get the troop numbers down to 470,000. Hopefully these officers will consider continuing their service in the Army Reserves.

Army drawdown continues: 1,100 captains to be cut

The Army drawdown continues this week, when about 1,100 Army captains will receive word that their military careers are about to end. Another 500 majors will get the same news in early July.

Thank you MAJ for the share, it would be wise of the Capt's to go reserves or Guard's, they'll be able to continue with their careers.
