Gah, sorry forgot to post the link. Mind you this snippet is from Daily Beast, make of it what you will. Full article can be read at Washington Post.

For what it's worth, assuming it's true, the Romanians, Poles and Hungarians told the Russians to piss off.

I didn't know we'd sent Airborne to Latvia as well. 101st? 82nd or a mix of both? Seems somebody's worried.
