Fort Campbell has unfortunately bad road and extremely old buildings, dating back to WWII. Thanks to the stimulus, Fort Campbell is going to see some major improvements.

Quote:
FORT CAMPBELL, Ky. (AP) -- Military officials say Fort Campbell will receive $103 million from President Barack Obama's economic stimulus package.

Fort Campbell's Director of Public Works, Ted Reese, says $43 million of the money will go toward completing a facility to aid soldiers injured in combat.

Reese says another $60 million will be used to replace multiple World War II-era buildings on the sprawling military post on the Kentucky-Tennessee border.

This is great news, finally a piece about the stimulus going for something good, and not as bonuses to overpaid executives.

When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me
