‘Unwilling or incapable’: Defense Department stands up moving task force after contractor failure

A new joint task force will help active-duty troops and their families with problems they experience while moving from base to base, the Pentagon announced Wednesday, after a multibillion-dollar contract aimed at streamlining and centralizing the military relocation process was terminated in June amid an avalanche of complaints. “It became very evident to me that they were either unwilling or incapable” of properly executing the contract, a defense official said Wednesday.
