We talk about a conventional fight in Europe.  I'm unsure our allies have what it takes to ship heavy equipment overseas in their SeaLift fleets.  What we do have are thousands of ships that can be brought into service to do heavy lift.  Doctrinally speaking I think we've screwed up a bit by moving Armored brigades around by plane to forward stocks as we've downsized our overall component numbers and European force.  We've started to forward supply more Armored vehicles in Germany for the rotational brigade.  But that's a brigade, when we used to have an entire Corps (+) stationed in Germany alone.

Will it be a good allied fight?  The state of the German Army is as such that their readiness has them on the back foot right now.  Luftwaffe can't keep planes in the Air...so Russia is coming to France baby, and although the French train a decent amount their Army has been downsized to under 100k active.

Granted the Russian Army's size is nowhere near what it was, I just think their readiness is far greater than our allies on the edges of Eastern Europe.
