With the troop levels in germany it is not for German defense.  Its mainly a staging area for troops heading to Africa and the Middle East.  Also Ramstein is where severely wounded military would be evacuated to first.  During the coldwar when I was stationed there at Ayers Kaserne (Kirchgoens) the US had almost 500,000 troops in Germany. We would patrol the East German border by the Fulda Gap (the place most likely to be invaded by the Soviets (Russians for you millennnials).
