Bush: Military
may get facelift
Goals indude new technological devices
NORFOLK. Va. (AP) — President
Bush pledged Tuesday to modernize
the military to face “the dangers of a
new era,” even if it
means scaling back
some older systems
beloved by the Pen
tagon and members
of Congress.
He called for a
new generation of
lighter, more mo
bile and more so
phisticated mili
tary devices that would harness new
technologies.
“Our goal is to move beyond mar
ginal improvements” in older
weaponry. Bush said after visiting a
joint U.S.-NATO command post on
the nation’s Eastern Seaboard and
viewing an electronic naval battle
simulation.
To those who might criticize his
plans, Bush suggested they wait un
til Defense Secretary Donald Rums
feld finishes a top-to-bottom review
of the military.
He did not suggest which weapons
systems he might delay or seek to can
cel to make room for new technology.
But later, aboard Air Force One,
Bush told reporters, “We must do it.
We’ve got some tough choices to
make, but that’s why you get elected.”
Bush also promoted his proposal
for a multibillion-dollar national mis
sile defense shield that would protect
not only the United States but allies
fronrlimited ballistic missile attack.
“The defenses we build must
protect us all,” he told an audience
that included emissaries from 18
NATO partners.
European allies have been skep
tical about such a system, which is
strongly opposed by Russia and
China.
“We must prepare our nations
against the dangers of a new era,”
Bush said.
The visit was the second install
ment on Bush's three-day tour of
U.S. military installations.
The president expressed anguish
over the loss of life, both in an Army
helicopter mishap Monday night on
the Hawaiian island Oahu and of
Japanese passengers on a fishing boat
that was struck by a U.S. submarine
just south of the island.
Bush led a silent prayer for the
six killed and 11 injured in the crash
of two Army Black Hawk heli
copters. “Just this morning, we
were reminded of the risks of your
duty and the sacrifices that you
make,” Bush said.
Later, he said, “The soldiers are
my direct responsibility as comman
der in chief. 1 take the responsibility
incredibly seriously.”
“We need to be very judicious and
careful about committing our
troops,” Bush said in his Air Force
One remarks.
News in Brief
FBI agent to drink,
may prove he was
not intoxicated
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) —
A former FBI agent accused of caus
ing a drunken-driving accident that
killed two brothers will be allowed to
drink beer in a controlled test aimed
at proving he wasn’t intoxicated.
A judge Monday granted David
Farrall’s request to waive for one
day a condition of his bail that pro
hibits him from drinking.
Under the supervision of a doc
tor, Farrall will drink two pitchers
and a pint of beer and eat
jalapeno peppers, chicken wings
and a hamburger as he did at a
bar the night of the crash. The test
will take place this week at his
lawyer's office.
A technician will draw Farrall’s
blood three times an hour to deter
mine the rate at which he metabo
lizes alcohol.
Farrall, 37, is accused of driving
drunk and the wrong way on Inter
state 95 with his lights off in 1999.
His vehicle crashed into a car, killing
Maurice and Craig Williams, ages
23 and 19.
Farrall was charged with vehic
ular homicide and manslaughter
and was fired from the FBI. He
could get up to 30 years in prison
if convicted.
His trial is set for March 19.
