BRAC Funds Provide Hurricane Help

Labor organizations at Letterkenny Army Depot in Pennsylvania collected donations last year to support an effort to keep the depot off the 2005 Base Realignment and Closure list. Now that Letterkenny has survived the BRAC process, Chambersburg Public Opinion reports, union officials have decided to use $2,500 in donations that are no longer needed for another cause: helping firefighters and federal employees affected by the Gulf Coast hurricanes last year.
