101st Airborne Division (Air Assault) If you want it done, ask the 101 Media Advisory Headquarters, 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault) Office of Public Affairs 2700 Indiana Avenue Fort Campbell, Kentucky 42223 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Lt. Col. Charles Barrett April 1, 2020 (931) 218-8725 Release No. 20-10 [email protected] 101st Airborne and Fort Campbell Soldier Tests Positive for COVID-19 By 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault) Public Affairs Staff FORT CAMPBELL, Ky. – A Soldier stationed at Fort Campbell has tested positive for COVID-19, marking the first confirmed case for the virus of a service member at the installation. The individual, who is assigned to a tenant unit at the installation, is currently isolated at their off-post residence. The individual has shown symptoms but has not required hospitalization. Upon notification of the result, Fort Campbell officials and Blanchfield Army Community Hospital health professionals ensured the individual was medically cared for and immediately began conducting contact tracing to determine whether any others may have been exposed. If any individuals are determined to be at risk, they will be directly notified. Health professionals and leaders are coordinating closely with civilian authorities in the surrounding area to determine any potential risk of exposure off the installation. Fort Campbell officials are continually assessing the environment, and implementing all appropriate control measures to help mitigate the spread of COVID-19, to include limiting staffing to mission essential personnel; modifying restaurant services to to-go posture; modifying dining facilities to grab- and-go posture; limiting childcare facilities to dependents of mission-essential personnel; and other safety and social distancing measures. At the direction of the Department of Defense, for Operations Security purposes, Fort Campbell will no longer be releasing or confirming aggregated numbers of positive cases. Fort Campbell will still report positive cases to the TN and KY health departments and to the Department of Defense. The safety of our community is a top priority, but this must be balanced with preserving readiness and maintaining OPSEC. -101- .

In addition, you subsequently asked us to evaluate a 1990 Corps of Engineers’ survey of rental housing in the Fort Campbell area and any related justification for additional family housing units. We evaluated only the survey becausethe Army has not submitted to you a revised housing proposal with a justification incorporating the survey. The Department of Defense (DOD), on behalf of the Army, in August Background 1989, requested authority from the Congressto proceed with a contract solicitation under section 801 of th&.$Iilitary Construction Authorization Act of 1984 for a build-to-lease housing project at Fort Campbell for 300 units. A section 801 build-to-lease project is new housing constructed to military specifications and leased by a private developer to the military for up to 20 years. At the end of 20 years, the Army has the right of first refusal to purchase the project. In the materials submitted to you, the Army justified the 300 additional family housing units by projecting a deficit of nearly 2,000 housing units at Fort Campbell by 1994.
