Defense officials have not said whether more are available. The Pentagon said Sunday that it had recorded 111 positive cases among service members, with 32 among civilian employees, 37 among dependents and 31 among contractors. That's up from 67 service members, 15 civilian employees, 26 dependents and 16 contractors on Friday. AD“We operate our training facilities year-round to keep up with our need to recruit new military members,” said Jonathan Rath Hoffman, the chief Pentagon spokesman.
