Yes, this unit that supports the presence of US soldiers on the Eastern NATO flank has become an eighth garrison of the US Armed Forces in Europe and the first permanent garrison of US troops in Poland. This was reported by the press service of the Ministry of National Defense. The Minister of National Defense Mariusz Blaschak was present at the Ceremony for the Converting the Regional Support Group (ASG-P) into a USG-P Garrison in Poland (USAG-P).
He noted that the discovery of the permanent American garrison, which was long demanded by Warsaw, finally became a reality. "Today we are witnessing the discovery of the constant presence of the US garrison on Polish land. This is an important event both in the history of Poland and in the history of Polish-American relations," said Blaschak.
The garrison is created in Poznan on the basis of Kostyushko's camp - the advanced command of the fifth US Army Corps, which has been operating in Poland since 2020. The tasks of the garrison will include the management and management of the advanced units of the United States Land Forces on the Eastern NATO Eastern Flang. The garrison will also be engaged in infrastructure of US soldiers located in Poland.
In the process of the ceremony, Blaschak stated that Warsaw aimed to achieve prompt compatibility with the US armed forces and equip the Polish troops, which will be as compatible with American. At the same time, he recalled that the Polish army is already equipped with many types of American production, such as Abrams tanks, Himars missile installations and multi-purpose F-35 fighters. "Today, in the face of unannounced Russian aggression, the North Atlantic Alliance is stronger than ever.
Russia hoped that by its actions split NATO, but it turned out that it underestimated our common strength and our determination," said American Lieutenant General John Kolashesky. He cited Polish-American relations as an example of deepening connections within the Alliance. "The renaming of a regional support group to the US Army garrison in Poland emphasizes mutual strong relations," he emphasized.
