Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
I want to come right back to you, Mr. Kaulbach, and I want to invite you to finish the point that you'd started there.
We have consistently challenged the premise that a downsizing in the department is justified based on the declining population of traditional veterans. We've challenged that premise, and I think you're about to give us a little more ammo.
Perhaps you could let us know where the figures are that you're citing, and feel free to expand on them as you will.
