  71.  
  72. Real property should not be owned by the DoD, but be held under long-term lease, with contract provisions to protect against arbitrary eviction

  75.  
  76. National Guard components will receive, store, and maintain weapons, vehicles, and other equipment appropriate to their terrain and defense needs
  77.  
  78. Major army bases should be combined with or located near Air Force bases whenever practical; proximity to naval bases is desirable, but not critical
  79.  
  80. Military hospitals will be incorporated into major Air Force bases to facilitate air evacuation
  81.  
  82. National Guard readiness standards will demand the ability to rapidly and totally integrate into a unified command and control structure
