Historicaly pay goes up under Republicans for military members and stays stagnant under Democrats. There are a lot of other impactful things today to consider like lack of care for trans dependants now taking effect. But really pre-trump Republican was the way to vote for immediate situational improvement as a military member.

I don't want to pay to maintain an Abrams, but am quite happy with my insulated electric kettle that has a temperature readout. Can we just skip the tank?

That's how the US military is though oddly enough. It's effectively run very bureaucratically outside combat zones. If everyone wasn't wearing uniforms you could mistake it easily for a regular business operating out of a bunch of run down buildings that offered free housing and healthcare, and if you signed up before 2018 or so and did 20 years you are guaranteed your salary for life. (2018(ish) the military switched to a 401k with match system)

It's a solid social safety net in a country where the other social safety net (social security) doesn't pay enough to live really and the healthcare through Medicare/Medicaid barely takes care of you.

This is why "Command said the latest military zone will be part of the Fort Bliss Army base in El Paso."

Effectively what happened was the land was turned into a part of the base. At every US base there is a line usually shortly before the gate, sometimes only at the fence line where you are considered "on base". Once you are on base military police can arrest you since they have jurisdiction on base. Kinda like how if you commit a crime in an unincorporated area, the sheriff will arrest you, not city cops since that's their jurisdiction.

Frankly though this type of move is unprecedented, as far as I know. While the fed can just give fed land to bases, I've never heard of it happening like this. It's a loophole to keep it legal on paper but not in spirit.

Original author retains the right to re-license anything they release. So for example I've created artwork and related it under a non-commercial license. No one else can use if for profit, but if one day I want to, I can, I can also grant someone a comercial license if I choose. But the original work can still be used by anyone for anything non-commercial.
