Wrong, incorrect and superfluous information!
In 1988 the cruise missiles from Florennes have been taken away.
They have been destroyed under the Intermediate Nuclear Forces Treaty !
The Base is not under full controle of the US Military, it is fully under control by the BAF.
Your info about the C-5 is superfluous, of cores the C-5 can land at EBFL it is designed to be able to land at all (major) NATO AirBase's
For your information take a look at Kleine Brogel AB, you'll find some intresting info!
