FORT CAMPBELL – (AP) Hundreds of thousands of furloughed civilian Pentagon employees are back on the job today including many at Fort Campbell.

They’re returning to work because Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel is allowed to issue a worker recall without congressional consent under a new law tied to the shutdown. According to the Fort Campbell official twitter feed, all Garrison DA civilian employees report to work today.

Non Garrison agencies and units are instructed to check with their supervisors
