Defense budget to increase amid budget deficit

Defense is getting too much money for FY 2011: $708 billion. It is very detailed, but about $56 billion goes simply to classified programs, or to projects known only by their code names, like Chalk Eagle and Link Plumeria. Budget calls for 1.4% increase for defense personnel; Obama asks for $708 billion from congress.
