From an Interview with John Nerger, Executive Director of IMCOM…

“The Army, which has been at war for the better part of this decade, is out of balance. We’ve got stressed soldiers and stressed families. I see IMCOM’s role as having a major responsibility to help the Army get itself back in balance by providing the complete range, and types of services, programs and facilities that support soldiers and families. I would characterize that as our principal goal for the next couple of years. In support of that goal is the Army Family Covenant… The second objective, the one I spend quite a bit of time on on a daily basis, is to ensure the command adapts successfully as the Army transforms. The Army is undergoing a lot of change. We’re closing in on the execution and completion of a significant round of Base Realignments and Closures (BRAC). We in IMCOM are also affected by BRAC. So, this command is directly supporting the rest of the Army as it’s making those transitions, implementing those base closures, executing those relocations at the same time we’re going through it ourselves.”
