So,

 The US Army cannot legally announce short-notice military war games around its barracks in the United States in the way it operated in Germany.

Domestic US military training falls under vastly different legal, regulatory, and constitutional frameworks than operations conducted abroad under international status agreements.

1. Constitutional and Legal Restrictions

Posse Comitatus Act: Under 18 U.S. Code § 1385, the US military is strictly prohibited from executing domestic civilian law enforcement unless expressly authorized by the Constitution or an Act of Congress.

Civilian vs. Military Authority: In Germany, historical Allied powers and the post-WWII Convention on the Presence of Foreign Forces provided specific extraterritorial privileges. Within the USA, military jurisdiction stops at the gates of the base, and all surrounding public areas remain under local civilian governance.

2. Local Jurisdiction and Training Areas

Unlike the vast, sovereign training rights the US Department of Defense negotiated with Germany, operations extending outside a US military base boundary require coordination with state and municipal authorities.Conducting tactical exercises requires civilian permits, closures of public roads, and local law enforcement assistance to ensure public safety.

3. Environmental Compliance

Under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), the military must formally assess and disclose the environmental and community impacts of large-scale or non-standard training exercises. Short-notice exercises in public view usually fail to meet the public notice periods and environmental impact statements required by federal law.
