US-Soldaten in Bad Fallingbostel (TrÜbPl Bergen) und in Munster
Bitte in der jeweils eigenen Friedensszene weiterleiten !
moin
Heute 11.6.20 um 12.00 Uhr meldete NDR 1, dass 600 US-Soldaten nach Munster verlegt werden, um dort im Juli 2020 “Defender” fortzusetzen.
Bad Fallingbostels Bürgermeisterin Karin Thorey gibt bekannt, dass aktuell etwa 300 – 500 US-Soldaten im Camp Fallingbostel (TrÜbPlatz Bergen) “übrig geblieben” sind, die “wohl” noch einpacken müssen.
Das ist übrigens nur aufgefallen, weil (Shuttle-)-Busse mit Amis zu Kneipen-Touren in der Stadt Bad Fallingbostel gesichtet wurden. Toll wie Amis der lokalen Wirtschaft aus der Krise trinken.
Bleibt gesund und munter.

He’s lying through his teeth. But if he should ever take a right political step out of personal disgruntlement about Germany’s military spending, for reasons of revenge or for strategic orientation towards China, we welcome the withdrawal and celebrate it with a big party at Ramstein Air Base … Continue reading →
