NATO will increase the strength of its rapid reaction force nearly eightfold to 300,000 troops as part of its response to an “era of strategic competition," the military alliance's secretary-general said Monday.
The NATO reaction force currently numbers around 40,000 soldiers which can deploy quickly when needed. Coupled with other measures including the deployment of forces to defend specific allies, NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said the move is part of the “biggest overhaul of collective defense and deterrence since the Cold War."

Lt Col Charlie Brown
I am sure Biden will volunteer to do so. Trump would have made them pay their share.

Lt Col Charlie Brown - I wouldn't want Biden having control of the Salvation Army, let alone a NATO force.

Sgt (Join to see) - Me neither, but he could be in charge of the (now woke) BSA ... oh, EXCUSE ME - they've renamed and dropped the "boy" from BOY Scouts to just, "SCOUTS."

SSG Bill McCoy - I guess. From past practice, he only like sniffing the girls' hair.
