ALERT: US Ground Troops To Be Sent To Poland, Estonia

 

 

April 18 2014

 

 

 

STUTTGART, Germany— A small contingent of U.S. soldiers will deploy to Poland and Estonia for a series of upcoming ground exercises aimed at reassuring allies shaken by Russian intervention in neighboring Ukraine, according to a report.

 

The U.S. is planning to send a company sized Army element of roughly 150 troops to conduct drills with allies, spanning roughly two weeks respectively in both Poland and Estonia, The New York Times reported Friday.

 

The land force exercises being planned by the Obama administration are part of a broader undertaking by NATO to beef up its presence in eastern Europe. It is unclear what U.S. unit will be taking part in the exercises in Poland and Estonia, but more details are expected to be announced next week, the Times reported.

 

On Wednesday, NATO said it would increase its presence in the region both on land, sea and air. Measures include plans for more fighter patrols over the Baltic nations and warships in the Baltic Sea and eastern Mediterranean.

 

One way to ensure a steadier presence of ground forces in the region is through a series of on-going troops rotations. The plan to send 150 troops to Poland and Estonia could be a first step with more such rotations to come in the future.

 

“There’s an entire range of possibilities and measures that are being considered,” Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said during a  Thursday news conference at the Pentagon with Poland’s defense minister Tomasz Siemoniak. “Rotational basis of training and exercises are always part of that.”

 

One such possibility that has been under consideration is the deployment elements from the Texas-based 1st Brigade, 1st Cavalry Division — the unit already designated as the U.S. contribution to the NATO Reaction Force — to maintain a steadier regional presence.

 

Warsaw is unlikely to be satisfied by such  limited, rotational deployments. Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski has urged NATO to station 10,000 troops in Poland.

      I’m sure sending 150 troops for a two week training session has Putin losing sleep. The Polish people have to realize this is little more than a meaningless gesture, and they are on their own, should Russia decide to expand in their direction.
      Other than that, I agree with you about End Times Prophecies being fulfilled all around us, most particularly in the regions around Israel, and that people need to get their own houses in order, repent of any sins, an on-going effort for most of us, because the signs we were told to watch for are quite apparent for those who have read the Bible. Note one more remark, Jesus told us to be careful not to fear for our lives but our souls, and that if you try to save your life by denying His Word and Him, you stand to lose your soul, which will be eternal. God bless and Happy Easter. Christ the Lord is risen today. Praise God! :smile:
