Publisher's Synopsis
Comptroller, and the Joint Chiefs of Staff. I hope that today's hearing will inform this committee of any changes that have been made or are being proposed to the posture of U.S. forces overseas to respond to similar terrorist attacks in the future as we saw in Benghazi and DOD's assessment of the recommendations that are included in the Secretary of State's Accountability Review Board (ARB) that affect DOD's installations or operations overseas. In November, DOD released a timeline of its response to the assault of September 11 and 12 in Benghazi, including the decisions made on the deployment of various forces based in the United States or overseas. A copy of this timeline will be put in the record. I think we each have it and it will be included in the record.
