Strange Sounds
I think they just don’t want to call it a base yet...
The US has opened its first military garrison in Poland.
A garrison (from the French garnison, itself from the verb garnir, “to equip”) is any body of troops stationed in a particular location, originally to guard it.
The garrison – housed in Poznań at Camp Kościuszko, which is named after the 18th-century hero who fought for both Polish and US independence – will act as the headquarters for the US Army’s V Corps in Poland.
In recent years, the already close military cooperation between Poland and the US has been further strengthened, with Washington sending additional troops and equipment to Poland in response to Russian aggression.
