European Troop Trim Is Unlikely
Washington AP reports the Nixon administration plans to keep U.S. troop strength in Europe near current levels through fiscal 1974, with about 190000 Army, 70000 Air Force and 45000 Navy personnel in the region. McGovern advocates a cut from 305000 to about 130000, arguing redeployment capability and allied NATO strength offset risks. Pentagon cautions reductions could destabilize NATO and invite re-evaluation of relations, while lawmakers worry budgets can force withdrawals.
