"We don't know exactly which unit will be here--although the current plan is to move an existing heavy armored brigade from here in Germany," said LTC Scott Flanigan, director of public works for the 100th ASG.

In any case, the Soldiers who will be stationed at Grafenwohr will be able to train and go home after work.

Historically, Soldiers who came to Graf from other locations in Germany had to travel for hours to reach their destination, draw equipment and then stay in the field for about 22 days, Lucht said.
