Activation.

This is coolbert:

Back to the future! American Cold War status Europe restored?

At least on paper.

"Army announces activation of V Corps to push back against Russia in Europe"

"The Army announced on Tuesday the activation of V Corps (or Fifth Corps), the latest development in the U.S. military's push to build up capabilities in Europe in the face of great power competition with Russia."

"V Corps will be based out of Fort Knox, Kentucky, per Tuesday's Army press release. It will be made up of 635 soldiers, 200 of which 'will support an operational command post in Europe on a rotational basis.'"

"It's expected to be operational by this fall."

Comments:

1. The American army during the height of the Cold War at all times maintained a force of two Corps sized elements in Europe. A Corps consisting normally of two division plus an armored cavalry regiment with additional combat support and combat service support elements.

2. The activation consisting merely as described apparently a HEADQUARTERS element with a rotating "operational command post".

HARDLY A FULL DEPLOYMENT OF MAJOR COMBAT UNITS. A TIGER NO TEETH!
