Eventually, the group sees not only students using the machine for student-faculty research, but local community and four-year colleges bringing samples over as well. The chemistry faculty members

Cuts to JBLM would represent as much as 8 percent of the total cuts recommended by SPEA, which calls for the Army to reduce its “active duty end-strength” from 562,000 in 2012 (when PEA research began) down to 420,000 or fewer.
