The Army needs help from congressional staff members to explain the short-term damage that results from operating with only temporary spending, Secretary of the Army Eric Fanning said Tuesday, Oct. 4, in a breakfast meeting at the Association of the U.S. Army’s 2016 Annual Meeting and Exposition.
Attended by more than 300 members of House and Senate personnel and committee staff members, the annual congressional breakfast is also attended by the Army’s senior military and civilian leaders.
