Mold being expunged from the barracks at Fort Meade

The mold being removed from Fort Meade barracks poses no immediate health threat, officials said, but military service members are still wary about living in moldy rooms.

“We’re working on a long-term solution, trying to spend money wisely and not committing millions of dollars to a temporary solution,” said Col. Kenneth McCreedy, the fort’s commander, during a second tour of the 1950s-era barracks Tuesday.
