As noted above, it is hard to believe the military ships fuel from the US for their bases in Germany. Surely it is local fuel that is sold on base.

On the other hand, it is a government bureaucracy in charge and thus there are unlimited taxpayer dollars involved. Perhaps they are using air tankers from the US to fly in gasoline for those soldiers, a legacy from the 1947 Berlin airlift crisis that they never bothered to stop :-)
