    Victor Davis Hanson: American soldiers leave Germany -- and suddenly
    Germany is upset

    A little more than half of the troops being withdrawn will return home.
    The rest will be redeployed to other NATO member nations such as Belgium, Italy, and perhaps Baltic and Eastern European countries.

    German Chancellor Angela Merkel is said to be furious. She claims the redeployments will “weaken the (NATO) alliance.” German commercial interests chimed in that the troop withdrawals will hurt their decades-old businesses serving U.S. bases.

    It'd make more sense to replace them with as many students
    as the current military budget could afford: Germany has
    good schools these days and can see real value in shipping
    inner-city Yankee kids off to Deutscheland for an Education.
