Fort Dix and McGuire have evolved with more personnel and more aircraft than I expected... If you would have told me four months ago that we would have 30-plus more aircraft, newer jet tankers and 1,000 to 2,000 more positions, I would have responded that it was too optimistic, but it does appear that is what's in store for McGuire and Dix under the new joint-base plan.

We need to get through one more hurricane season and winter of Nor' Easters. A lot of our beaches are in poor shape. A series of powerful storms in the 1990s have eroded large sections of sand and dunes. One more major hit and we could be in big trouble. There are thousands of lives, homes, businesses and public property at stake here. They are at clear risk.
