“Some of us are saying: ‘Are we getting benefits out of it? Is it working? Are we having problems?’ Because in some places, we are having problems with joint basing,” Odierno said. “So we’re taking a hard look at this … then we’ll move forward on what we think the way ahead is.”
Lt. Gen. Bill Grisoli, director of the Army staff, has formed a group with his counterparts from the other services to review the issue, Odierno said.
