The Americans swore never to get dragged in to a war with Germany or see the British get devastated again, so they set up the pro-Western puppet state of Darmstadt. The Allies quickly started the rebuilding of the region, but it would last for many years due to the legacy of the fierce fighting in the region.
4,500 American troops would arrive in the town, with a major infantry base and a major cavalry base operating there between 1947 and 2007.
150 New Englander and are still stationed in there and first arrived in 1947.
Darmstadt ganed home rule in 1947 and graduly gained substatial home rule by 1953.
