The Pentagon has proposed base closures for the past four years, and Congress keeps saying no. Among the most costly defense activities is maintaining some 1,000 bases, camps and airfields around the world. How did DoD wind up with so many bases overseas in the first place? David Vine is an associate professor of anthropology at American University and author of "Base Nation: How Military Bases Abroad Harm America and the World."
