Yes we should, need to move forces from Germany or Italy. Don't need both in Europe to cover Europe, Africa and Middle East AO. Moving Forces from one of these two countries into Poland, Romania and Hungary would be smart for a future persistence.
This is long happen, I'm really surprised it has taken this long. The location along the Black Sea is very strategic for that region. The Iranians have long range ballistic missiles that they have test fired on many occasions. Tie this in with an active nuclear bomb development program and our NATO allies have real reasons to be concerned about them. This site will be a good solid deterrence against the Iranians shooting anything at Europe.
Only issue I have with thisis when we cut away planes that we use almost monthly for budget reasons yet we going to do this. As President Eisenhower said the "great military complex" is driving the train. Good with the ugly.
