In your Myths and Facts document, you state, 'Currently DoD has the authority to reassign employees, including reassignment to overseas locations, when necessary to support the mission. We do this under today’s system. This authority is unaffected by NSPS. One of the goals of NSPS is to reduce its reliance on military to perform jobs that could be performed by civilians.' If this were true, then why even address the matter in the proposed regulation at all. Anything not modified by this chapter would remain as is in the current law. There are currently limitations as to who can be deployed and the agency would have to bargain with the Unions if agencies began adding to the conditions of employment.
