In Quotes

“Militarily, even though there have been some cutbacks, there are more American troops in Europe than in any other place in the world. With one exception -- the United States, of course. After that, the largest concentration of U.S. military power is in Europe. Not as an occupier, but as a partner for Europe’s security.” - Stephen Mull, U.S. Ambassador to Poland, April 30, 2013

By the Numbers
