A 1,000-page strategy document outlines logistical plans for every detail of the operation, including the buildings and infrastructure that the NATO troops will need to join Ukraine in fighting Vladimir Putin's army.
There are sections of the plan that deal with how the NATO troops will proceed in the event that they must defend Germany from a Russian attack. There are also sections that cover what to do in the event of tension, one example being a deterrence reaction should Russia maneuver on NATO's eastern flank.
Western powers are worried that Russia will not only take over Ukraine but also the rest of Europe. Germany would become a central hub for NATO troops to access war material, food, medicine and other supplies.
Over the next three months, upwards of 200,000 military vehicles are scheduled to be moved into Germany as well.

Will WWIII commence before Trump's inauguration?
The plans were forged to basically reinvent what was lost in years past when Germany used to hold an annual Reforger (Return of Forces to Germany) exercise to keep armed forces abreast of the logistics of large-scale military movements such as this.
"In 1980, the 4th Infantry Division Headquarters went to Germany for a Command Post Exercise," wrote a commenter. "The next year, the whole division went for a field exercise. There was method to the madness."
"Now all of that has to be reinvented because it was all stupidly dismantled," responded another. "The bases and logistics are gone ..."
Because of the loss of the Nord Stream fuel pipelines, Germany and Europe as a whole are struggling to keep their economies afloat since energy now costs too much. As such, things are shifting to a war economy right before our very eyes.
"Our government has spent nearly ten trillion dollars on military aide, adventures and covert operations since 2001," wrote another commenter. "We are the only nation that encourages and condones constant blood spilling."
"I'd like to see an end to war profiteering and Western hegemony. Russia has done nothing the West hasn't done. Not even close."
On the one hand, NATO and Germany are trying to send Putin a message that they have a plan in case he acts in punishing the West for crossing his "red lines." On the other, 800,000 troops are a lot of troops, so what is NATO planning to do?
"The arc of this is going in one clear direction," someone else wrote. "I think they want to invade Russia."
"Germany certainly doesn't need to be in another war with Russia," added another. "The last one certainly didn't go so well for them. Plus, the German landscape has seen enough war in its lifetime."
Since Russia has nuclear weapons, all those troops Germany is bringing in and allowing to pass through its territory could end up facing a possible blast event, suggested another.
"I've been saying since June 2024 that we were in the beginnings of WWIII," wrote another. "It amazes me that we are in so deep now and people don't want to recognize it. Pray for peace!"
"What a stupid idea to get all caught in one location and possibly get destroyed by one nuclear device!" wrote someone else. "If things go nuclear, these troops will mean nothing."
Another suggested that if the U.S. gets involved in war before President-elect Donald Trump is installed in January, then a state of emergency could be declared that might interfere with the transition of power.
