JOINT BASE ELMENDORF-RICHARDSON, ALASKA -- Pentagon officials are keeping quiet on details surrounding a plan to cut 18,000 medical billets across the military.
The drawdown, included in President Donald Trump's 2020 budget proposal, announced earlier this year, would cut uniformed doctors, dentists, nurses, medics, technicians and support personnel from throughout the Army, Navy and Air Force. (The Navy provides medical support to the Marine Corps.)
