Ohhhh Redleg.
I like your pictures of your Cav in parade formation. Because of you, yes you! Not only did I find the 2 companies without antennas, I found another 25 or so without antennas. I thought I had antennas on all my Aussie and CoC Abrams.
Thinking about attacking into Poland with EE forces. Dang!

Ukraine
Many Abrams that were damaged in the Black Sea War have been receiving turret swaps or repairs, engine packages installed along with new electronics. That bring over 120 Abrams updated, upgraded, either deployed in the field or being transported up north from facilities in Romania-Dom. M2 Bradleys are being painted with the Aussie camo to match the Abrams, Hummvs, Boxers, Ratels, etc.
. The CoC has moved a liaison team to Poland to coordinate/communicate with ROD military. News of the NWPR sending units to support ROD in Poland is a welcome development.
.
Americus Island in the western Mediterranean at Commonwealth air facilities are working on almost a dozen B-70 B bombers and a half dozen B-58 Hustlers. Engine and electronic upgrades are taking place at the facility.

The ROD is very thankful to have the CoC liaison team with them, and they are going to maintain a liaison team in Ukraine as well. What do you think about setting up a formal HQ to coordinate the efforts of the CoC, ROD, RPNW, Ukraine, and Poland? The CoC has a lot more ground to cover so Ukraine would seem like the best location. The ROD has communication and support units in the med with JTF-M that we can shift to Ukraine and then we can backfill JTF-M with units rom the ROD.

Ukraine
CoC HQ in Ukraine will welcome the Peace Keeping Allied Command in Ukraine. It will be at a separate location from our HQ, want different location to reduce risk. The CoC would like to choose HQ area to facilitate Ukraine & Polish areas, if you don’t mind.
The CoC will start to look at facilities that may be suitable. The theater HQ would like set up a duplicate subordinate HQ station in Poland for redundancy, if you would like to arrange.

Excellent! The ROD will survey the area and establish the subordinate HQ inside Poland. Give us a few days and we will get the details together.

The Polish Army, working with ROD and RPNW forces, has approved a subordinate allied HQ in the town of Nowy Dwór Mazowiecki, just north-west of the Polish capital of Warsaw. It is a picturesque city with an airport and a population of about 42,500. Construction is beginning on a secure headquarters facility near the Mazowiecki Port Lotniczy Warszawa-Modlin airport on the north side of the town.
