U.S. Rep. Mike Pence, R-Ind., said the Army is committed to providing the money needed to rebuild heavily damaged facilities at the post.

"My message to the secretary of the Army is that we don't want to lose any momentum as a training and mobilization facility that we've earned over the last five years," Pence said.

Pence said he would support any emergency federal funding for the more than 50 tornado-damaged homes and businesses in Edinburgh, which could include disaster housing, crisis counseling and Small Business Administration disaster loans
