Book excerpt: Excerpt from Department of Defense Authorization for Appropriations for Fiscal Year 2005, Vol. 6: Hearings Before the Committee on Armed Services, United States Senate, One Hundred Eighth Congress, Second Session on S. 2400; Personnel; March 2, 4, 31, 2004 Reducing stress on our forces is a top priority. Some have called for a permanent increase in end strength. We do not believe this is wise. We continue to review the ade nacy of our mil1tary capabilities to ensure that we meet our Nation's security needs. End strength is a critical determinant of capability, but only one of many other factors. A permanent increase is not in the Nation's long-term interest. We have a number of other initiatives underway to increase our near-term and long term capabilities while relieving near-term stress on the force.
