247
HR 4301 EAS

tion of weapons of mass destruction and ballistic mis-
siles.

President to enhance United States-Israel military
and technical cooperation, particularly in the areas of
missile defense and counter-proliferation.
(6) Congress is supportive of the establishment of
the United States-Israel Science and Technology Com-
mission in 1993.
(7) Maintaining the qualitative superiority of
the Israeli Defense Force and strengthening the de-
fense ties and science and technology cooperation be-
tween the United States and Israel will help ensure
that Israel has the military strength and political
support necessary to take risks for peace while provid-
ing Arab states with an incentive to pursue negotia-
tions instead of war.
(8) Israel continues to cooperate with the United
States on numerous theater missile defense programs,
including the Arrow Tactical Anti-Missile program
and the boost phase intercept technology program.
248
HR 4301 EAS
(9) It is in the national interests of the United
States and Israel to strengthen existing mechanisms

to further collaboration between the United States and
Israel.
(b) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—It is the sense of Congress
that Congress—
(1) encourages the President to ensure that any
conventional defense system or technology offered for
release to any NATO or other major non-NATO ally
should concurrently be available for purchase by Is-
rael unless such action would contravene United
States national interests; and
(2) urges the President to make available to Is-
rael, within existing technology transfer laws, regula-
tions, and policies, advanced United States technology
necessary for continued progress in cooperative Unit-

SEC. 1018. REVIEW AND REPORT REGARDING DEPARTMENT
OF DEFENSE PROGRAMS RELATING TO RE-
GIONAL SECURITY AND HOST NATION DEVEL-
OPMENT IN THE WESTERN HEMISPHERE.
(a) FINDINGS.—Congress makes the following findings:
257
HR 4301 EAS
(1) The political environment in the Western
Hemisphere has been characterized in recent years by
significant democratic advances and an absence of
international strife; but democracy is fragile in some
nations of the region.
(2) It is desirable for the Department of Defense
to perform a positive role in influencing regional
armed forces to make positive contributions to the
democratic process and to domestic development pro-
grams.
(3) Congress receives a number of annual reports
relating to specific authorities granted to the Sec-
retary of Defense under title 10, United States Code,
such as the authorities relating to the conduct of bi-
lateral or regional cooperation programs under sec-
tion 1051, participation of developing countries in
combined exercises under section 2110, and the train-
ing of special operations forces with friendly forces
under section 2011.
(4) The annual reports are replete with statistics
and dollar figures and generally lacking in substance.
(5) Congress does not receive annual reports with
respect to other authorities of the Secretary of Defense,
such as that relating to Latin American cooperation
under section 1050 of title 10, United States Code.
258
HR 4301 EAS
(6) Testimony before Congress, including in par-
ticular the testimony of the Commander in Chief,
United States Southern Command, and the Com-
mander in Chief, United States Atlantic Command,
has emphasized the conduct of a large number of com-
plementary programs under the leadership and super-
vision of those two commanders to foster appropriate
military roles in democratic host nations and to as-
sist countries in developing forces properly trained to
address their security needs, including needs regard-
ing illegal immigration, insurgencies, smuggling of il-
legal arms, munitions, and explosives across borders,
and drug trafficking.
(7) Most of the programs referred to in para-
graph (6) provide excellent and often unique training
and experience to the United States forces involved.
(8) The expansion of the military-to-military
contact program to the Western Hemisphere will pro-
vide another tool to encourage a democratic orienta-
tion of the defense establishments and military forces
of countries in the region.
(9) There is a need to conduct a comprehensive
review of the several authorities in title 10, United
States Code, for the Secretary of Defense to engage in
cooperative regional security programs with other
259
HR 4301 EAS
countries in the Western Hemisphere in order to de-
termine whether the authorities continue to be appro-
priate and necessary, particularly in the light of the
changed circumstances in the region.
(10) There is a need to conduct a comprehensive
review of the various programs carried out pursuant
to such authorities to ensure that such programs are
designed to meet the needs of the host nations involved
and the regional objectives of the United States.
(11) There is a need to assess the strengths and
weaknesses of the various regional security organiza-
tions, defense forums, and defense education institu-
tions in the Western Hemisphere in order to identify
any improvements needed to harmonize the defense
policies of the United States and those of friendly na-
tions of the region.
(b) REPORT REQUIRED.—Not later than May 1, 1995,
the Secretary of Defense, shall—
(1) carry out a comprehensive review and assess-
ment of the matters referred to in paragraphs (9),
(10), and (11) of subsection (a); and
(2) after consultation with the Chairman of the
Joint Chiefs of Staff and the commanders of the com-
batant commands responsible for regions in the West-
ern Hemisphere, submit to the Committees on Armed
260
HR 4301 EAS
Services of the Senate and House of Representatives
a report on regional defense matters.
(c) CONTENT OF REPORT.—The report shall contain
a detailed and comprehensive description, discussion, and
analysis of the following matters:
(1) The Department of Defense plan to support
United States strategic objectives in the Western
Hemisphere.
(2) The external and internal threats to the na-
tional security of the nations of the region.
(3) The various regional security cooperative
programs carried out by the Department of Defense
in the region in 1994, including training and edu-
cation programs in the host nations and in the Unit-
ed States and defense contacts set forth on a country-
by-country basis, the statutory authority, if any, for
such programs, and the strategic objectives served.
(4) The various regional security organizations,
defense forums, and defense education institutions
that the United States maintains or in which the
United States participates.
(5) An assessment of the contribution that such
programs, defense contacts, organizations, forums,
and institutions make to the advancement of regional
261
HR 4301 EAS
security, host nation security and national develop-
ment, and the strategic objectives of the United States.
(6) The changes made or to be made in the pro-
grams, organizations, forums, and institutions as a
result of the comprehensive review.
(7) Any recommended legislation considered nec-
essary to improve the ability of the Department to
achieve its strategic objectives.
(d) CLASSIFICATION OF REPORT.—The report shall be
submitted in an unclassified form and may, if necessary,
have a classified supplement.
SEC. 1019. PAYMENTS-IN-KIND FOR RELEASE OF UNITED
STATES OVERSEAS MILITARY FACILITIES TO
NATO HOST COUNTRIES.
(a) FINDINGS.—Congress makes the following findings:
(1) 
The 
United 
States 
has 
invested
$6,500,000,000 in military infrastructure in North
Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) countries.
(2) As part of an overall plan to reduce United
States troop strength in Europe from 323,432 in 1987
to 100,000 by the end of 1996, the Department of De-
fense plans to close or reduce United States military
presence at 867 military sites overseas.
262
HR 4301 EAS
(3) Most of the overseas military sites announced
for closure are in Europe where the United States has
already closed 434 such sites.
(4) When the United States closes military sites
in Europe, the United States brings the military per-
sonnel home but leaves buildings, roads, sewers, and
other real property improvements behind.
(5) Some allies have agreed to pay the United
States for the residual value of the real property im-
provements left behind.
(6) 
Although 
the 
United 
States 
military
drawdown has been rapid since 1990, European allies
have been slow to pay the United States the residual
value of the sites released by the United States.
(7) As of 1994, the United States has recouped
only $33,300,000 in cash, and most of that was recov-
ered in 1989.
(8) Although the United States has released to
Germany over 60 percent of the military sites
planned for closure by the United States in that coun-
try and the current value of United States facilities
to be returned to the German government is estimated
at approximately $2,700,000,000, the German govern-
ment has budgeted only $25,000,000 for fiscal year
263
HR 4301 EAS
1994 for payment of compensation for the United
States investment in such improvements.
(b) POLICY.—It is the sense of Congress that—
(1) the President should redouble efforts to re-
cover the value of the United States investment in the
military infrastructure of NATO countries;
(2) the President should enter into negotiations
with the government of each NATO host country with
a presumption that payments to compensate the
United States for the negotiated value of improve-
ments will be made in cash and deposited in the De-
partment of Defense Overseas Military Facility In-
vestment Recovery Account;
(3) the President should enter into negotiations
for payments-in-kind only as a last resort and only
after informing the Congress that negotiations for
cash payments have not been successful; and
(4) to the extent that in-kind contributions are
received in lieu of cash payments in any fiscal year,
the in-kind contributions should be used for projects
which are identified priorities of the Department of
Defense.
(c) REQUIREMENTS AND LIMITATIONS RELATING TO
PAYMENTS-IN-KIND.—(1) Subsection (e) of section 2921 of
264
HR 4301 EAS
the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year

HR 4301 EAS
(1) The families of American personnel who be-

cern to Congress for several years regarding provi-
sions of chapter 10 of title 37, United States Code, re-
lating to missing persons, that authorize the Secretar-
ies of the military departments to declare missing
Armed Forces personnel dead based solely on the pas-
sage of time.
(2) Proposed legislation concerning revisions to
those provisions of law has been pending before Con-
gress for several years.

appropriateness of revising those provisions of law be-
fore acting further on proposed amendments to such

been held in China during the Korean conflict and
that foreign POW camps in both China and North
Korea were run by Chinese officials’’ and, further,
that ‘‘given the fact that only 26 Army and 15 Air
Force personnel returned from China following the
war, the committee can now firmly conclude that the
People’s Republic of China surely has information on
the fate of other unaccounted for American POW’s
from the Korean conflict.’’.
(2) The Select Committee on POW/MIA Affairs
recommended in such report that ‘‘the Department of
324
HR 4301 EAS
