The returning military personnel in Virginia — from all four branches of service — will be housed in buildings located in a secluded area of the base, and will have the appropriate amenities, officials said. They will still be allowed to communicate with their families electronically. Their return comes as the Pentagon said Wednesday that it doesn’t plan to send the full 4,000 troops to Liberia as initially expected. There are currently 2,200 American troops helping to build health care facilities there, and U.S. officials believe a force of about 3,000 will be an adequate enough response to help stem the worst-ever outbreak of Ebola.
