First Permanent Garrison On NATO’s Eastern Flank Established By U.S. Army In Poland
On Tuesday, the U.S. Army opened its first permanent garrison on NATO’s “eastern flank” at Camp Kosciuszko in Poland. NATO’s eastern border stretches from the Baltics to the Black Sea and is comprised of 8 countries, all of which are former members of the Warsaw Pact or the USSR. Now, the U.S. Army’s V Corps will have a permanent presence in the region.
