    After an epically unfiltered rant, an arrogant, loudmouth U.S. Army Colonel is reassigned to the Netherlands, where he is punished with a command position at the least important army base in the world. After serving with distinction in every warzone of the last three decades, he now finds himself in charge of a base with no guns, no weapons and no tactical purpose. Instead, it has a Michelin-star-level commissary, top-notch bowling alley and the best (and only) fromagerie in the U.S. Army. Surrounded by a diverse group of underdogs, the colonel tries to reinstall military discipline and professionalism with the help of the base's previous interim leader, who just happens to be his estranged daughter. Starring Denis Leary, Danny Pudi, Taylor Misiak, and more!

      Actually as a Dutch guy, my father used to be in the military in Germany. It was obligatory military service back then and some had to serve on German bases. So it was quite real in the 70's. When I ask my father I always get nice stories about how unmotivated people where, like the hippies they were back then with long hair. Google on Rinus Wehrmann or hippieleger and you see what made the Dutch infamous, rebelling soldiers with no order. So this comedy series is based on some facts...

      my short time in germany (a long time ago and they messed up my contract and sent me there... so only a short time) what is totally realistic here is that unless you are a large "base" (baumholder, etc) your basic base is for a brigade... so you have motorpools, a bowling alley, an officer club (and maybe including an nco club with it or if you are really special a separate nco club)... thats it....

      Not Baumholder! When I was assigned there, their commissary only opens 3 times a week. You have to drive to Ramstein to do a real grocery shopping. In Baumholder, it will be foggy and rainy but the rest of Germany will be sunshine. In Baumholder, you can experience the 4 seasons in 1 day. Baumholder also have a place called cardiac hill. About half of the formation falls out and you keep recovering the strugglers and spend about 20 minutes just for that hill. Baumholder is a small German town, only have 1 bar (Boomerang) but have McDonalds and Pizza Hut.

    This series says more about the actual state of knowledge of Fox and a lot of American people about Europe and particularly of The Netherlands than about the Dutch and European. You don’t have an idea about what you yourself are behaving in other countries. Yes, dutch people are very direct, but we are honest and not disrespectful like the people who wrote, produced and played for this nonsense series. First the name of the dutch base: Stroopwafeldorf… Stroopwafel is Dutch, but dorf? That’s German. And then all the bloody stupid old fashioned cliches. Cliches can be funny, but then in a proper storyline. And you dare to end the promo on RUclips with the tune of Monty Python. It’s a bloody shame. Monty Python did have a good storyline and super humor. Fox has no idea of quality.

Even the accents are German, a Dutch accent is not so difficult to speak if you hire some Dutch actors. Even the buildings and the trees don't look Dutch. It would have helped if it was filmed in the Netherlands with some Dutch actors. I have an idea: let's make a movie about the american army and film it in China with people speaking with a Indian accent.

    I actually live IN Stroopdorf and this EXACTLY how we rock it! Our nation is just a little bit big larger than the state of Maryland. Still impressive that we are the SECOND largest producer of agricultural goods in the world, we have a virtual monopoly on the creation of HIGH TECH lithography machines and we are the FIFTH largest exporter in the world due to the port of Rotterdam.
