Fort Carson is soon to receive more Federal Dollars (your tax dollars) to bring/create another Combat Aviation Brigade at Ft Carson and Pinon Canyon Maneuver Site.

They've done an Environmental Assessment that says it won't cause any harm and public comment on that 'EA' is open through January. Download the EA HERE

Fort Drum in NY has a CAB with drones now as well.
Fort Riley in KS has a CAB already and will receive their drones in March.
So if Fort Carson gets a CAB then the drones will surely follow - but the EA doesn't mention that.

The overall cost of the CAB is estimated to be in excess of $4 billion. Over $700 million of that is for construction at Fort Carson. The rest is for all the helicopters, drones and ground vehicles etc.
In a time of budget cuts in general and in the Pentagon budget in particular how does this make sense? What are the priorities of our congressional folks who are pushing this?
