I think the Czech Republic would welcome the US dollars that our soldiers would bring with them.....

I left Germany in mid-1989 - THE WALL was still up. Served in NATO for thirteen years. My recollection is that the closer one got to the border with the Warsaw Pact nations, the more the Germans appreciated American soldiers.

Interesting. I served with Miklos back when we were captains.

I was at Hradiste last May...great training area. Deepest mud I've ever seen/taken a tank through. Best part was forcing the soldiers to actually land navigate, and the trails had only had light vehicles run over them for years before we arrived (BMP's mostly), so our guys were busting some trail. Lots of space and few of the goofy rules you see at Graf and Hoehnfels (but the Czechs were still very interested in collecting those maneuver damage checks!)

Oh, and the fact that Karlovy Vary was just up the road wasn't too bad either ;)
