Borosage, Robert L. | October 4, 1993 issue

The article focuses on disinvesting in the United States after Pentagon attack. The release of the Pentagon's long-awaited "bottom-up review" was a fleeting story that drifted by in the last idle days of the summer. The review wrestled with the dilemma facing the U.S. military after the collapse of Russia: What to do now that the threat is gone? The last military plan--the Bush Administration "base force"--was pieced together in 1990 when Russia was still considered a central threat. United States is safer from external attack than at any time in this century.
