Anybody think we'd ever see this number of American armored vehicles in Europe again after the collapse of the Warsaw Pact? 120 Strykers rolling down the highway would make for an impressive sight.

I think it would have made better sense not to bring the armor (and some of the units) home in the first place.

I was slightly disappointed by the fact that they went all PC and predominantly mentioned/ showed "Iron Troop" & "Lightning Troop" on Twitter and Facebook.
Focus should have been on the third Stryker infantry element in 3rd Squadron, "Killer Troop". Would have sent a much clearer message to the Kremlin.

History was over. Armor units and guys like me weren't needed anymore.
