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.

Afghanistan: The London Conference
Yet, at the moment, I am thinking about a superb international event that happened last week: the International London Conference on Afghanistan. Last week, I wrote about my last trip to Afghanistan as we prepared for it. The media has thoroughly covered the conference (here’s a sample of recent coverage, based on an interview with me), and you can watch key presentations online, like this one from Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen’s review of the conference on his video blog. So rather than reiterating what's already been said, I thought I'd share with you some personal thoughts and impressions, and my interpretations of the atmospherics.
