Army Installation in Alabama Expected to Have 50,000 Workers

The commander of a U.S. Army installation in Alabama says it will grow from 44,000 employees to more than 50,000 by 2025. 

Redstone Arsenal's senior commander, Lt. Gen. Edward Daly, says that $2 billion in infrastructure projects in the next five years will keep Redstone growing. 

Daly made the comments at a recent meeting of the Huntsville Madison County Chamber of Commerce.

The arsenal has dozens of tenants, including NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center and a growing FBI campus.
