U.S. Colonel Says Troops Watching Outside Ukraine 'Ready if the Call Comes'
Story by Fatma Khaled • Yesterday 11:34 AM


American troops in the 101st Airborne Division positioned near Ukraine are prepared to respond if the war with Russia reaches allied territory, U.S. Army Colonel Ed Matthaidess recently said.
 
The troops are positioned in a way that allows their artillery to be within easy range of Ukraine. The proximity also allows members of the division to gather intelligence and monitor fighters around the Black Sea, according to Stars and Stripes, a U.S. military news organization.

Matthaidess said on Monday that troops are "ready if the call comes."

"We are ready for whatever comes our way, and I'm very confident that we will accomplish any mission that's given to us," Major General Joseph P. "J.P." McGee, 101st Airborne Division commander, said recently during an interview at the Mihail Kogalniceanu Air Base headquarters in Romania, according to Stars and Stripes.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Isn't Gen. Milley worried Biden will start a war and use nukes?  He'd better call his friends in China and assure them he won't allow nukes like he did with Trump!! :whistle:
