I guess "virtual impossibility" is too strong a term. "Extremely unlikely" is probably more accurate.

Either way, US forces were never there to prevent a European war, but to defend against a Soviet invasion. So you're just arguing a moot and irrelevent point. It's laughable that you and Ustwo are now saying US forces should remain in Europe to keep the peace.

But let's get back on topic. Was this officer justified in his actions?
