Congressman Cole to Visit Ft. Sill and Tinker Air Force Base

Washington, D.C. – Congressman Tom Cole will join Senator Inhofe on a tour of both Tinker Air Force Base and Ft. Sill on Friday, May 13th. Their visit will coincide with the official announcement of military installations on the Pentagon's Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) Commission list, expected on the same day.

"I have every confidence that Oklahoma bases are well positioned for the BRAC process, just as they have in previous rounds of base closings," Congressman Cole said. "Each Oklahoma base has unique advantages that are important to our military. Also the state and local communities have made every precaution in anticipation of this announcement."

Below are the tentative times and locations for the base tours.
