And BRAC might have accelerated somewhat, if the U.S. needed to close and align installations in order to save money or shuffle it around for newer weapons programs in anticipation for a prolonged Cold War. One of the reasons that so many installations were able to be closed in the several BRAC rounds was the fact that the Cold War's end made them not only unnecessary and redundant, but also cost-prohibitive to even maintain in any kind of caretaker status.
