What the fuck are they even doing in Germany? Would expect a rotation of troops for training. But no need for them to be based there.

If anything put them in Poland or other Eastern European countries.

Good. I think Switzerland, Czech Republic, Poland, and Austria are more deserving of our presence over other European countries.

What do you call it when, after a war, a country leaves its troops there?

My understanding as well. Has been acting like a midway point for deploying assets to the ME for the past two decades.

French and Brits have long since left. We're the only dummies still there.

Because as much they like to pretend world conflict is over, its not. Everyone is playing nice because of nuclear MAD and US military. Nations still fight only commercially now. Look at the EU germany and its ww2 allies still trying to take over europe.
