I have said it a lot of times on this site.

Close all the bases in Germany and move them to either England or Poland in the old east Prussian region. The Poles have already said they’ll BUILD US military bases and PAY for much of it.

The old East Prussian region would poke the Germans right in the eye.

The U.S. doesn't have a military presence in Germany to protect it from the Russians.

The U.S. has a military presence in Germany to protect the rest of Europe from Germany.

Crz, you are about 10-20 years late in calling for the closing of US bases in Germany. By 2008, when I visited, every kaserne where I was stationed in the 3d Armored Division was closed, some for 10 years. After the end of the Cold War the US began withdrawing Army and Air Force units and reducing the overall size of the Army and Air Force. The Army was reduced by 6 divisions along with three corps headquarters and supporting units.

The Army currently has 2 brigades in Germany, one in Italy and a brigade+ in eastern Europe. Here are 2 sites that shows how it use to be for US Army Europe and is now:
