We've already got boots on the ground there, since about 1999. Right now there are about 1,400 U.S. soldiers in Kosovo as part of Task Force Falcon, the U.S. contingent in the 15,000-strong Kosovo Force. The vast majority of U.S. troops are stationed outside of Urosevac at Camp Bondsteel. A company-size element is based at Camp Nothing Hill, a military compound near the border with Serbia. Most of these U.S. soldiers are with the National Guard. The NATO-led Kosovo Force (KFOR) currently includes forces from the U.S., Great Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Czech Republic, Netherlands, Spain, Poland, Greece, Turkey, Russia, Canada, and Ukraine.
