Germany has about 1,000 of their military people stationed here. Permanent slots to support their troops who come here for training.

Qatar has had training here for years as well. As does the Netherlands, the United Kingsom, Singapore, and various other nations who send people here for training. It’s not new.

“Permanent” just means there are staffers here full time, but just visiting for training. They usually do one to three year rotations.
