I spent 40 yrs working for the Army at the <a href="http://www.apg.army.mil/apghome/sites/about/history.asp" rel="nofollow"> Aberdeen Proving Ground </a> in Maryland. We had two harball courts. A few years after we switched to the international game, the Army closed that facility and built a new one. We pleaded with them to make the new court with international standards for softball. They built a brand new harball court! Today, it is a weight room because no one used the squash court. I can relate to your comments about the Pentagon building the last new harball court.
