How does this work?

And why shouldn't, you know, he's not going to go without a fight, Castro.

No, it will not.

It will not.

It will not.

Well, Germany, you know, when you fly from North America, especially from Canada, and you want to go anywhere else, you want to go to the Middle East, you want to go to Africa, you change in Frankfurt, right?

And it's not only because of the Star Alliance, it's because Germany is the hub of

At the intersection.

That's true for the United States too, Peter.

It's not only the U.S.-Europe command that works out of Germany.

The U.S.-Middle East command has a big base in Germany.

And when soldiers are injured in the Middle East, they're flown to a big military hospital.

And the U.S.

Africa Command makes use of the same facilities.

So really, Germany provides multiple bases, airplanes refuel in Germany on the way.

They overfly Germany, and it is a center for medical care for U.S.

forces literally everywhere in Africa and the Middle East.

That is a big deal.

That is a huge benefit to the United States.

Yeah, I think that's really important that we Americans have 36,000 troops.
