Under the provisions of the retired serviceman's family protection plan, retired service personnel who elect to receive reduced amounts of retired pay are able to provide for monthly payments to be continued to their survivors. The reductions are determined on a basis designed to establish an actuarially sound system. Current appropriations provide only for the net payments to be made each year, and the liability for future payments of survivor benefits is unfunded. Administrative expenses of this family protection plan are provided as operation and maintenance costs of the military services. The accumulated difference between reductions in retired pay and actual payments of survivor benefits is indicated in the following table (in thousands of dollars):

[blocks in formation]

The Operation and Maintenance appropriations of the Department of Defense provide funds for the day-to-day costs of operating and maintaining the Armed Forces, including the Reserve Forces, and related support activities of the Department of Defense. Included are the combat forces under the control of the various unified and specified commands, as well as the logistical, training, and administrative activities provided by each military department and the defense agencies.

Financial requirements for these accounts are influenced by a variety of factors, the principal of which are military personnel, force levels, rates of operational activity, numbers of installations, and quantity and complexity of major equipment (missiles, aircraft, ships, tanks, etc.) in operation. Details of force and military personnel levels are in part 4 of the budget. Further discussion of the impact of force levels is included under the applicable appropriations. A substantial part of these appropriations pays for the cost of operating and maintaining our military installations throughout the world. The numbers of major

The substantial gains to the retired rolls can be directly attributed to the greater number of individuals attaining eligibility for retirement after 20 or more years of active military service.

cations, and medical, are financed by these appropriations. Supply activities of the various services and of the Defense Supply Agency procure, store, distribute, and compute requirements for military materiel. These various functions are conducted at supply depots and centers, shipyards, inventory control points, procurement offices, and other logistical installations throughout the world.

Training activities provide for individual training of officers and enlisted men including recruit training, career training, and training in special skills, including pilot training. The majority of individual training is conducted through resident courses of instruction at the various training bases, service schools and colleges, although some educational facilities of civilian institutions are used. This program also provides for the operation of the three service academies, including a larger cadet enrollment at the Army and Air Force Academies, as authorized by recently enacted legislation.

Communications support relates primarily to commercial leased line facilities. These include two defensewide automated communications switching networks for voice and record purposes, which are being expanded in 1966 to provide for a vastly improved capability.

Medical care is provided active and retired military personnel and their dependents in hospitals operated by the military departments, by other Federal agencies, and by civilian agencies. It cost the Department of Defense $76 million in 1964 for the care of dependents of military personnel in civilian hospitals, and these costs are estimated at $80 million in 1965 and $83 million in 1966. General and special funds:

Comparative expenditures.......... 3,369,170 3,340,000 3,320,000

This appropriation provides for the operations and other activities of the Active Army, with a beginning strength of 963,273 and end strength of 953,094 for 1966, and for those unified and specified command headquarters assigned to the Army. This budget reflects the elimination of the 15,000-man increase in strength provided in 1964 and 1965 for testing and evaluation of experimental air assault concepts. A major change in 1966 will be the transfer of the operation of the U.S. Army Replacement Training Centers from operating forces to training activities to place most individual training in one budget activity. 1. Operating forces.-This program provides for the unit training, operation and support of Army combat and combat support forces comprising approximately 70% of the Active Army strength. Included are costs for the operation and maintenance of the installations where these units are stationed and the operation and maintenance of the weapons, aircraft, vehicles, and other equipment used by these units. Also financed in this program are the Army Air Defense Command, the operation of tactical aircraft, the field exercise program, and special tactical activities.

2. Training activities.-This program provides for the individual training of officers and enlisted men. Individual training includes recruit training in U.S. Army Replacement Training Centers and school training at 37 Army service schools and colleges. In addition, this program finances joint training activities of the Industrial College of the Armed Forces, the National War College, the Defense Language Institute, and the Defense Information School.

3. Central supply activities. This program finances all of the logistics functions involving requirements computation, procurement, storage and distribution of supplies and equipment for the combat forces of the Army. It also finances the maintenance of 46 idle and partially idle industrial plants which are essential to mobilization requirements, particularly for ammunition. The selfsupporting function of excess, salvage and scrap property disposal is also contained in this activity.
