Following this vote, I'd like to amend the resolution again after noticing a misworded clause.

Replace the present clause d) with:

d) V Corps HQ, and subsidiary units

This amendment is necessary only to declare our support for moving the entire V Corps, rather than simply its headquarters to the US.

Hmmm... as Peter said, there is clearly no chance of an Islamic flare up in Europe:





Yup... all is well here.

I'm hearing you Soulty, but you and I both know that American troops can be to Europe long before anything requiring heavy divisions erupts.

Here is the final version of the resolution, if there is no debate or objections I will open up voting sometime early tonight.


Senate Resolution on Military Forces in Europe

1. The Senate recognizes the long lived threat of conventional war in Europe has ended.

2. The Senate also recognizes the usefulness of European bases for deployment to other overseas theaters.

3. Therefore, the Senate urges the President, in consultation with our NATO allies and the Secretary of Defense, to order the following units to redeploy to Continental United States bases:

a) First Infantry Division, and subsidiary units
b) First Armored Division, and subsidiary units
c) Third Air Force, and subsidiary units
d) V Corps HQ, and subsidiary units

4. The Senate also urges the President, in consultation with the Pentagon, to provide for the maintenance of key bases and military equipment in Europe.

5. The Senate also resolves to work as a committee to study the future of military bases in Europe and to work towards the best deployment of forces to maintain our strategic deployment capabilities.

Aye.  Sorry for not voting on the amendments, I haven't been following this thread that closely, although I did read the whole thing before voting.

This resolution has enough votes to pass. Senators now have 24 hours to change their votes.

Seeing how the Senate has undertaken our role in passing a resolution outlining what we believe is the best plan of action, I call upon the President as Commander in Chief to put this plan into motion.

The State Department plans on working closely with the Defense Department to accomplish this (if the Defense Secretary ever contacts me).
