Iceland: End of an Era


On Saturday, 29 September, the U.S. ends its presence at Keflavik. US troops have been there since World War II, and I believe this now makes Iceland the only NATO member state with neither a military of its own nor allied forces stationed on its soil.

I guess will be relying more and more on SOSUS to deal with the threat of rickety Russian subs sneaking theough the GIUK gap.
