The Honorable Philip Coyle,
I am very concerned about the BRAC Commission's decision to
close Cannon Air Force Base.
*
I do not believe the Commission is fully aware of the unique
attributes that Cannon offers to our national defense. These
include an abundance of air space and no encroachment issues, a
bombing range that is only seconds away, the airspace to fly at
supersonic speeds, and ideal year-round flying weather, among
many others.
In addition to the military value to the nation, Cannon has been
supported over the last 50 hears by the local communities like no
other in the country. We consider Cannon a part of our family.
The closure of Cannon will also have a devastating impact on our
economy. It has been estimated that the area will lose at least 20
percent of its workforce, plus the ripple effect that we will have on
our public and higher education systems.
Please reconsider all the facts before making your final decision.
Respectfully Yours,

General Lloyd W. Newton,
I am concerned about the proposed closing of
Cannon Air Force Base.
Curry and Roosevelt share the benefits of
Cannon, if it were to close the residents of
Portales would suffer a great loss.
As a life long resident of the area, I have seen
the many benefits of the base, from fantaslic
people we meet who are stationed at Cannon to
the jobs that are available for our local
residents.
Again, I ask that you reconsider closing
Cannon and allow Cannon to remain an
important part of our economy.
Respectfully Yours,
