Congressman Ron Kind said he worked closely with other elected officials to help secure the funding.

“We work really closely with Senator Baldwin’s office to have some dedicated funding for to modernize the barracks not only for the enlisted men and women but for the officer corps, too, so when they go to Fort McCoy for the all season training, when they get there, they can walk away with a really positive experience.,” Kind said.
