I just had a thought that perhaps why the Germans wanted the U.S. forces out, but wanted to keep their AFVs and HW, was not so much to guard against the remaining Soviet forces in Poland (they seem to be pulling out and going home or disintigrating into scattered marauder bands in the spring of 2001), but to guard against the rising power of France.

Tha's an interesting what-if for the end of the twilight war. If France decided to expand and take advantage of post-war europe, there isn't a hell of allot that could stop them.
