It’s time to move US forces back to Europe

In this article from 2017, Daniel J. Kochis and Tomas W. Spoehr make a case for the return of permanently stationed US forces in Europe. According to them, recent Russian aggression in Europe has made it clear that the US needs to adjust their policy and increase the presence of US troops on the continent. For Kochis and Spoehr, there are clear disadvantages to the current rotational troops present in US bases across Europe. Permanent troops provide a better deterrent to any adversaries, along with other benefits.
