DOD Announces the Services’ Final Fort Hood Reviews

            The Department of Defense (DoD) announced today the release of the Army, Air Force, Navy and Marine Corps final reviews of the recommendations from the independent report “Protecting the Force: Lessons Learned from Fort Hood.”

            The DoD places a high priority on implementing recommendations that will strengthen policies, programs and procedures. The services’ follow-on reviews recommend concrete actions, many which have already been implemented, across a range of issues that all contribute to the safety and health of our military forces.
