Eric Geressy, strategic advisor to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, traveled to Vilseck to consult on the future of US forces in Germany.
Geressy met with commanders at the garrison in the Oberpfalz region. He will prepare proposals on possible troop withdrawals or essential units.
President Donald Trump’s government has voiced criticism toward Europe. Geressy stated that the United States remains a reliable partner.
