Had this topic come up in the ole lunch room and I thought it was of intrest.
The US is considering closing the few bases remaining in Germany. Reasons are that the Germans are tired of playing host to foreign militaries, don't agree with a lot of recent US actions. The US is tired of paying high fees to the Germans to "rent" facilities. So.....  Does the US need to maintain a presence in Europe at all? And if it does, would shifting bases to say, Poland or some other eastern european country be the best choice? Myself, I've of two minds on this. If Poland is willing to play host country, then an Air Base or two and perhaps, a forward deployed Brigade. Or, taking a page form a Tom Clancy novel, how about basing a Brigade/Air Base in Israel? Thoughts?
