    US Military Deployments In 130 Countries - What's Wrong With This Picture?

    Isn't it time we adjust the troop deployments in countries that were figured based on threats dating 50 years ago?

    These current numbers are a tremendous waste of resources when our guys are getting overwhelmed in Iraq.

    The US currently has its military forces deployed in 130 countries around the world.

    75,000 US Troops Are In Germany. Why?

    41,000 US Troops Are In Japan. Why?

    41,000 US Troops Are In South Korea. (OK we need some here, but come on 41,000???)

    17,000 On Ships Near South Korea. (OK we need some here also, but 17,000???)

    13,000 US Troops Are In Italy. Why?

    12,000 US Troops Are In The UK. Why?

    You might think we're still worried about the Soviet Union and China doing nation building.

    Another interesting stat. Only 300,000 of the US Military's 1.4 million active duty personnel are trained for war zone combat operations.

    The current cost of our military is $1.1 Billion per Day.

    Time to change the allocations and leadership of the US Military. Its plagued with mismanagement and waste.

                      China is one of our biggest trading partners. The last thing China is going to do is fuck with its biggest customer and the last thing we're going to do is fuck with one of our biggest supplier of slave labor manufactured goods.

                        Yeah all these people have no clue, it's little known or talked about but King George has eased things with China even more than Clinton did and that's saying a lot.

                                Well it's not Sudan, Russia nor Germany, Spain or Latvia who's starting the wars.

                                Must be the will to waste billions of money on keep pissing people off and from that, paranoia.

                                  You forgot a couple thousand in FORT BONDSTEEL,Kosovo...

                                  The land has been paid for 99 years btw.


                                  You want to know why?

                                  Simple,cause it's cheaper.

                                  Been to Kosovo myself for 6 months and have grown up in Heidelberg,Germany... I've seen how many there are

                                  There is no point other than $$ for having so many troops stationed outside the US.


                                  Take care,

                                    A few facts about Fort Bondsteel:



                                    Construction of Fort Bondsteel begin in the summer of 1999.
                                    ?The United States immediately - and without any permission from anybody -
                                    seized a large area of Gnjilane county to built largest army base in the Balkans.?
                                    (Diane Johnstone)
                                    It covers between 775 and 800 acres.
                                    It includes a Burger King, two chapels, a library, fitness club, volleyball court, hospital,
                                    movie theatre, as well as SEA Hut accommodation for troops, drywalled barracks
                                    with electric wiring and air conditioning.
                                    It has an ammunition site and a helicopter pad capable of serving Apache (offensive)
                                    helicopters (up to 55 helicopters)
                                    It is large enough to accommodate an aircraft runway.
                                    The cost of the initial phase was $32 million. At a later point in construction the
                                    cost had risen to $36.6 million. It is not known at this time what the final cost will
                                    be.
                                    Various commentaries that it ?could last a generation,? ?will last for many years to
                                    come,? ?The United States is taking advantage of this opportunity to build a base
                                    spacious enough to provide future needs,? ?We just don?t know how long we will
                                    be here,? (this latter is by Shawn Sullivan, political advisor to General Craig Peterson,
                                    the camp?s commanding officer).

                                      If we've still got troops in Germany in Japan since WWII, think about how long we'll be in Iraq!

                                          That is amazing. I've never seen that release in the US media before. Classic example of what I posted about.

                                            75,000 troops in Germany is so ridiculous its beyond ridiculous.

                                              Theres a reason for them being all over the world.

                                              1. Nuclear weapon - Don't want all of our troops getting wasted by just one.

                                              2. Presence/Swift Deployment - To be able to go anywhere and everywhere at a moments notice. Lets say theres trouble in a far off region... can we really wait over a week to transfer all the troops and vehicles all the way from the US to that region?

                                                  its a staging base, transport base & medical base.

                                                  its where troops group for war and rotate out.

                                                  its a good location, they should stay there and make sure the eu doesnt get any funny ideas

                                                        The military doesn't worry about making sense, or spending 1.1 billion dollars a day.

                                                        I agree 75,000 troops in Germany seems.. foolish at this point. I guess its a regional thing?

                                                                        These current numbers are a tremendous waste of resources when our guys are getting overwhelmed in Iraq.

                                                                        The US currently has its military forces deployed in 130 countries around the world.

                                                                        75,000 US Troops Are In Germany. Why?

                                                                        41,000 US Troops Are In Japan. Why?

                                                                        17,000 On Ships Near South Korea. (OK we need some here also, but 17,000???)

                                                                        The current cost of our military is $1.1 Billion per Day.

                                                                              She also said that they have been buying up all the worlds steel for years.... saying its to build cars or something.

                                                                                She also said that they have been buying up all the worlds steel for years.... saying its to build cars or something.

                                                                                  So picture this....

                                                                                  In the mean time, China may or may not have been 'sitting on' that steel at all.. and instead they could have been building tanks, planes, ships etc...

During Desert Storm, a majority of planes routed through these places and so were troops. Makes for quicker response and mobilization. If all were in the U.S. and something broke out in Syria, we would shend so much more time and $$ getting people over there. As it stands, Europe is closer to the Middle East than we are...

                                                                                                    These current numbers are a tremendous waste of resources when our guys are getting overwhelmed in Iraq.

                                                                                                    The US currently has its military forces deployed in 130 countries around the world.

                                                                                                    75,000 US Troops Are In Germany. Why?

                                                                                                    41,000 US Troops Are In Japan. Why?

                                                                                                    41,000 US Troops Are In South Korea. (OK we need some here, but come on 41,000???)

                                                                                                    17,000 On Ships Near South Korea. (OK we need some here also, but 17,000???)

                                                                                                    13,000 US Troops Are In Italy. Why?

                                                                                                    12,000 US Troops Are In The UK. Why?

                                                                                                    You might think we're still worried about the Soviet Union and China doing nation building.

                                                                                                    Another interesting stat. Only 300,000 of the US Military's 1.4 million active duty personnel are trained for war zone combat operations.

                                                                                                    The current cost of our military is $1.1 Billion per Day.

                                                                                                    Time to change the allocations and leadership of the US Military. Its plagued with mismanagement and waste.
