EUCOM Turns 60 Today
Happy Birthday, US European Command!
Today we celebrate the 60th anniversary of the inception of our command. Our dedicated Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, Marines and civilians are here at a fine time.
Since Aug. 1, 1952, EUCOM participated in or provided support to more than 200 named operations. These operations cover the spectrum of military operations, from humanitarian and natural disaster relief efforts to peacekeeping and anti-terrorism/force protection operations and preserving peace across Europe.

Three Outcomes from Lisbon
We finished the Lisbon summit last week – really a high point thus far in the nearly 18 months I’ve been the Supreme Allied Commander Europe (SACEUR). While not without some challenges, overall the summit must be judged a real success.
