    There is no strategic reason to keep troops in Germany...I believe they should ALL be pulled out

    Theyve been there since 1946 and were never deployed
    Agreed.....it's all about business , but it's the kind of business that they should learn to do without.

You're making economic project pacts with Russia and China who are our primary adversaries, you can protest yourself. Moving them to Italy makes some sense, backing them up into Belgium makes sense as well......but the entire EU needs to change its' own diapers.

    Afghanistan. East Africa. Guam. We could use them elsewhere. Keep at least 25,000 in Korea. Several pacific fleets. Add a Carrier Group in the Middle East, and start the offer sheets to Greenland, you chosen frozen ready to sell out yet. We got some colonialization in mind.
    We definitely need to shore up our Arctic defenses.
