Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Colin Powell worked for more than half a year on a plan to save money by reducing duplication in the armed services. A few days before Powell released his report, Defense Secretary Les Aspin told the services to reduce the leftover Bush Defense budget by about $11 billion. Reporters outcried that President Clinton had ordered the budget slashed. The Pentagon's budget is expected to shrink from $274 billion in 1993 to $264 billion in 1994. The end result is that the reductions advocated by the Bush and Clinton administrations are essentially indistinguishable.
