Old news my friend. Rhein-Main closed down months ago actually. That news article is a little bit incorrect. They actually officially handed it over in November. All personal moved to Rammstein AFB. I had to fly a General up to the official handing over ceremony in November. After that date there were no operations and I believer only a very small select people there to continue moving equipment off the base.
