Army officials are seeking public comment on possible personnel reductions at Fort Campbell.
A community listening session is set for Jan. 20 at Fort Campbell's Family Resource Center.
Clarksville, Tennessee, officials are urging area residents to attend and show support for the Army post straddling the Kentucky-Tennessee line. The session will allow residents to voice their opinions to Department of the Army officials about the potential personnel reduction and its possible impact.
A similar listening session is scheduled for Jan. 6 in Elizabethtown, Kentucky, for residents living near Fort Knox.
To meet smaller operating budgets, the Army is projecting a reduction in personnel strength from 490,000 to 450,000, and possibly as low as 420,000. The reductions would affect both military and civilian positions.
