Future
The Wiesbaden Army Airfield is going to be the new US-Army Headquarters in Europe. The US-Army headquarters in Heidelberg and Mannheim are currently relocating to Wiesbaden. . Because of this decision the Wiesbaden Army Airfield will grow and many new building projects and modernizations started at the end of 2009. Recent budget cuts and demands from American Congressmen for more base closures in Europe have led to speculation that Wiesbaden may close since it has no real military value.

Famous quotes containing the word future:
“One merit in Carlyle, let the subject be what it may, is the freedom of prospect he allows, the entire absence of cant and dogma. He removes many cartloads of rubbish, and leaves open a broad highway. His writings are all unfenced on the side of the future and the possible. Though he does but inadvertently direct our eyes to the open heavens, nevertheless he lets us wander broadly underneath, and shows them to us reflected in innumerable pools and lakes.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“We simply must have faith in each other, faith in our ability to govern ourselves, and faith in the future of this Nation. Restoring that faith and that confidence to America is now the most important task we face.”
—Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
“But what we strive to gratify, though we may call it a distant hope, is an immediate desire; the future estate for which men drudge up city alleys exists already in their imagination and love.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
