1 correctly?
2 MR. CIRILLO: Actually, March wasn't on the group.
3 In our scores, that's correct. In the staff preliminary
4 scores, that's correct.
5 COMMISSIONER COX: And the one-time costs are not
6 based on a specific realignment?
7 MR. DICAMILLO: That's correct. These are level
8 runs.CHAIRMAN COURTER: I hope there's no further
motions on this thing, but we may have many more.
Commissioner Cox.
COMMISSIONER COX: We should perhaps try to avoid
further motions on this.
Frank, if you would look, then, we have,
basically, two alternatives to K.I. Sawyer at the moment and
one that goes both ways as to March or K.I. Sawyer. If we
might just look, then, at alternatives to March,
specifically, as opposed to K.I. Sawyer. Malmstrom, I think
MR. CIRILLO: That would be slide 7-L.
COMMISSIONER COX: Malmstrom would be difficult in
the sense of you run into the START issue, and we have
already looked at looking at one which would perhaps cause
trouble in that area. So, putting that aside and looking at
Beale and/or McChord, Beale is in group 2 of 3, at least as
to bombers and tankers.
MR. CIRILLO: Correct.
COMMISSIONER COX: And McChord is in group 3 of 3
as to airlift. As compared to March, McChord is better in
airlift, not quite as good in tankers. Am I reading that1

Northwest air defense sector, they're more unique,' e
difficult to deal with moving?
MR. DICAMILLO: Absolutely. Yes. The two bases
really are two different missions. And when you consider
March Air Force Base as the recommended, that becomes even
third type of base, if you will. It's strictly a tanker
base that has a large Reserve military, Air National Guard
and Air Force Reserve components on the base getting bigger
And it has active duty tankers. Whereas Beale has tankers
but they support the recognizance mission. And McChord is
strictly an air lift base.
COMMISSIONER COX: And when we talk about reducing
capacity by four of the large aircraft bases, how do thesE
compare in reduction of capacity? Can you compare *hem at
all?

COMMISSIONER COX: As between Beale and McChord,
would you outline some thoughts that you might hav
the differences?
MR. DICAMILLO: Beale Air Force Base is home of
the U-2. It was the SR-71 before. It had both, but now th,
U-2 is one of its unique assets. The other is, it has a
phased-array pave PAWS radar on site. That would unlikely
not be moved. If it was, it would be extremely expensive.
And it also has the home of the Air Force combat ammunition
center.
Other than that, it has less cost, according to
the level runs, to close than McChord Air Force Base.
COMMISSIONER COX: But in pointing out those
unique military assets, you think, as compared to the11
