We need a horizon so that we know what our budget is going to be not only this year but in years to come. Otherwise, we cant spend it efficiently, and we cant spend it strategically. We need that kind of horizon and sequester is what robs us of that, and thats why its bad in a manage yearal sense for anybody who has their budget sequestered. General dempsey, do you want to speak to that and perhaps its affect on readiness . As you know, weve been trying to dig out of a readiness hole.

So despite the numerous commitments on a senior level dod officials can you tell me when you will restart work on the ecmra . When youre going to use accepted army methodology . And when will you be insisting on comp
Military level over there and things at the political level, both of which are change inging. Thank you very much. Thank you, mr. Chairman. And general dempsey, i join my colleagues in sending warm wishes your way and thank you you for your more years of serving o our great nation. Mr. Mccord, i would like to chat about the budget thats upcoming. The House Budget Committee chairman proposed boosting the Defense Budget with an increase of allocation. Is an oko dollar just as useful as a base budget dollar . In other words, should there be limitations on funding that Congress Needs to be mindful of . Both dollars are useful to us for purposes they are intended and needed. We dont need 36 or 38 billion in oko, but we need them in the base budget. Both have restrictions in law and in regulation. So if you had your choice, youd rather have the dollars in the regular budget as opposed to oko funding . Thats where we identified the needs and this is very important, and this gets back to the e
