These Lost Tanks stand rusted in place in western #Germany, inside a 220-hectare area that once served as an armed forces training ground. The tanks were used as hard targets for artillery practice, but this area of the forest is now a protected nature reserve.
Some tanks sit in wet pasture where ponds have formed in old track marks. Others rest among the mixed spruce, pine and beech forest.

For those in #Germany #Deutschland who don't want #USA troops in your country, well... these troops are currently being starved out by their own government
The #US #Army Garrison #Bavaria, Home of 7th Army Training Command, is instructing its personnel on the official website to, get this, *get their food at German food banks*
🥴
What an amazing, modern, powerful, military

Reports indicate that some Russian drones were directed at NATO base during attack on Poland
Anyone who still believes that Russian war criminals will shy away from extending their war of aggression to the rest of Eastern Europe is beyond help.

#Washington has been informed about the intent for the #NationalGuard to now be #armed, though it has not received details about when that could happen or where armed Guard members could be deployed in #DC….
It would be a departure from what the #Pentagon & #Army have said about the #troops being unarmed. The Army said last week that “weapons are available if needed but will remain in the armory.”

Matt Zeller, an #Army veteran whose #Afghan interpreter saved his life in a 2008 firefight, co-founded the nonprofit No One Left Behind to help resettle #Afghans. He said he fears the #immigration crackdown will unwind that effort.
“The #Trump administration knows what’s going to happen to these folks. They’re not stupid. They understand that the #Taliban is going to kill them when they get back to #Afghanistan,” Zeller said. “They just don’t care.”
They point to the arrests of Zia, 36, and Sayed Naser, 33, whose attorneys argue they followed proper #immigration processes. The Post agreed to withhold the last names of both men because of the ongoing threats to their lives from the #Taliban.
“Zia is not an outlier,” his attorney Lauren Cundick Petersen said during a news conference last month. “We’re witnessing the deliberate redefinition of legal entry as illegal for the purpose of meeting enforcement quotas.”
