[Night Hides Not]

What's wrong with REFORGER? Preposition equipment & materiel, keep our troops in the US, let Europeans be the tripwire. I was at Hahn for two years...we joked that our life expectancy would be 15 minutes after the balloon went up. Hahn, Bitburg & Spangdahlem would each have been hit by 15-20 Sovier fighter wings.

I participated in REFORGER '77 as an augmentee. Great training, great experience with the 1st Infantry Division. Big change from air base air defense. It made me a better platoon leader.

What’s wrong with REFORGER? Equipment in Europe, troops in the States, and both useless without the other. The aircraft bringing troops from the States would be MIG-meat.
