Is POMCUS and REFORGER still a thing? Do we still have the tanks in storage in Europe, or are those gone now, too?

REFORGER per SE, is gone I think. Exercises like Atlantic Resolve or similar ones test rapidly moving personnel into Eastern Europe and Germany. REFORGER-esque in scope and size. Last years' was the largest in some twenty odd years if my memory is correct?
I would bet $ that the 21st Century equivalent of POMCUS and Pre-P0 (the USAF version of POMCUS) are being prepped if they are not already in place.
As far as actual tanks, I suppose the only MBT's are the ones that rotate through Poland, Romania and the Baltics on deterrence/tripwire duty although I may be mistaken.
