US LEAVES GERMAN BASES

The US Army will pull out of 13 bases in southern Germany as part of its repositioning of American forces around the world, its European headquarters in Heidelberg said.

Eleven bases in and around the Bavarian city of Wuerzburg will be handed over to the German government by September 2007. Two more bases near Wuerzburg will close and be handed over in subsequent years.
