Issues with the Army’s Europe-based equipment trigger readiness alarms

Equipment has not been maintained...too busy attending DEI classes...

It sounds like more maintenance folks are needed. Otherwise, we'll just have equipment in states like Russia had last year.

Stuff that just sits being looked at tends to deteriorate. Do the stock sites have qualified operators exercising the equipment regularly? I was TDY to the Armor Depot in Mainz for about 6 months in the mid 80s. It was a busy, busy place during the cold war Have the maintenance stds in the European Command gone in the crapper?
