Woensdrecht

Woensdrecht is a municipality and a town in the southern Netherlands. Woensdrecht is mainly known for its airbase. In 1983 it was decided that the US would station 48 nuclearly armed cruise missiles here, unless the USSR would reduce the number of SS-20 missiles to 378. Since the number was higher in 1985, stationing was on. Among the Dutch population there was much protest against this. The plan was cancelled in 1987 due to the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty.
