On August 9, three anti-war protesters, including a 70-year-old woman, cut a hole in the fence of the Patch Barracks in Stuttgart and hung a four-metre-long banner between two trees. The banner marked the 60th anniversary of the Hiroshima bombing. The barracks include the headquarters of the US European Command. The protesters weren’t challenged by anyone, and after walking out through the main gate, they later turned themselves in to police.
