    I think to add to what you just said, places where US military bases are at , those local communities, especially their restaurants. Will see a big hit in traffic. Ramstein air base in Germany has over 70,000 Americans there. Those people eat in restaurants in the area (off base) they shop in stores off base. That is a LOT of money going into that economy. And it isn’t all going to major stores (corporate stores) it also goes to mom and pop shops.
