(Amerika) Streitkräfte der USA - allg. Sammelthread

[Vanitas]

Wobei die Standortentscheidungen in Deutschland absolut nachvollziehbar und für die betroffenen Kommunen kein Problem darstellen sollten, wie du schon für Garmisch erwähnt hast. Auch in Ansbach und K-Town bleibt das US-Militär in anderen Kasernen. Die meisten Standorte, die aufgegeben werden, sind Kleinsteinrichtungen, die noch aus der Zeit des Kalten Krieges übrig sind.

Hier noch enmal die komplette Liste der Maßnahmen vom DoD:

United Kingdom
• Divest RAF Mildenhall — returns the installation and four supported sites to the United Kingdom. DOD intends to relocate the operational units at RAF Mildenhall within Europe — the assigned KC-135s and the 352nd Special Operations Group to Germany and the assigned RC-135s within the U.K. This paves the way for the stationing of two squadrons of F-35s at RAF Lakenheath, starting in 2020.
• Divest RAF Alconbury/RAF Molesworth: Consolidation of missions allows the permanent return of RAF Alconbury, RAF Molesworth, and supporting sites to the United Kingdom. The majority of U.S. personnel, and many of the U.S.-funded host nation positions assigned to these bases, will be transferred to RAF Croughton.

Germany
• Close Mainz-Kastel Station — fully returns the site to Germany.
• Close Barton Barracks — fully returns the site to Germany and relocates the Department of Defense Dependents Schools Bavaria district office to Grafenwöhr.
• Partially close Pulaski Barracks in the Kaiserslautem area — returns part of the site to Germany.
• Close Weilimdorf warehouse site — returns the site to German control.
• Close two Baumholder waterworks — returns control to Germany.
