Department of Defense Appropriations for 1998: Hearings Before a Subcommittee of the Committee on Appropriations, House of Representatives, One Hundred Fifth Congress, First Session

This volume constitutes part of the official public record from the 105th United States Congress. Published in 1997, it documents the legislative proceedings of the House Subcommittee on National Security regarding budget allocations for the Department of Defense. Such hearings are a fundamental aspect of the federal appropriations process, designed to provide transparency and congressional oversight of military spending and policy priorities for the upcoming fiscal year.

The document was produced by the Government Publishing Office as a standard public record. It reflects the collaborative efforts of committee staff, members of Congress, and military officials who participated in the hearings. These records are intentionally functional in design, prioritizing clarity and verbatim documentation for the purpose of legislative accountability, serving as an essential reference for researchers, historians, and policy analysts studying American defense strategy during the late 1990s.
