US Air Forces in Europe and German officials met at Ramstein AB, Germany, to sign a support arrangement, detailing how USAFE will accommodate the German support unit on Ramstein. A previous agreement, signed in 1988, had become outdated, said officials, because of organizational changes for both the Germans and Americans. The new agreement, signed Dec. 1, details logistics and administrative support, including housing and workspace, USAFE will provide to the German unit on Ramstein.
