Plans eyed to move Landstuhl hospital - Germany - Stripes: "The Defense Department is trying to move swiftly with plans to relocate the largest U.S. military hospital overseas from its Army post in Landstuhl to a site adjacent to Ramstein Air Base.
The department hopes to complete a preliminary design and have a projected budget for the new facility ready by February, when Congress is scheduled to review proposed annual defense spending, said U.S. European Command spokesman Navy Lt. Cmdr. Taylor Clark.
But the move is not a done deal, he said. Congress could choose not to provide funding, or problems could arise in the design phase, two possibilities that could force DOD to back away from moving the hospital to the community of Weilerbach, Clark said."
