Close to 200,000 US military personnel there or on the way. No way to know how many civilians, which have taken over non-military support tasks like construction, painting, waste collection, etc. Today's military doesn't spend a lot of time in the mess hall peeling potatoes, they have civilians for that. Or so I am told.
