No, but logistically it would make sense to move our forces farther east. I really don't give a damn if these little German towns lose the bases. I'm just looking out for America's best interests, not those of the Germans or the Poms.

Oh yes, agreed, the US forces are no longer needed in Germany, and I'm sure the old eastern bloc countries would be glad to accommodate them. Nobody in power in Germany either really gives a damn if little German towns lose some income temporarily. Plenty of other towns have coped OK before, and in fact the German Army too regularly closes bases, resulting in general moaning at first and then adapting.

Sorry, I thought you were one of those posters who think that Germany can be punished and its economy tanked when the US troops pull out, which is pretty laughable when you think about it.
