Hnnmmm whats the odds that Lakenheath and Mildenhall will close within the next decade? 50/50, 60-40, 70-30.

Then that means Alconbury and Molesworth and Croughton will also have to shut.

Thought it be more important for the Pentagon to keep bases in the UK for a number of reasons and not for the half to a century agreement(s) but more that the UK is a trusted ally.

Ok say for example the above went then what would happen to say support for Menwith Hill go as it comes under the 501st at Alconbury.

Molesworth is pretty important as it is as well as MH.
