The Defence Secretary has announced that an army barracks in Kent will close as part of a defence review. More troops will be added to Salisbury Plain and Aldershot.
This is good news for Aldershot. The Basing plan not only bringsincreased investment to the area by the MoD, but also learning where units and families will be based in the coming years will give them the certainty they need to plan their futures.
