The US has bases in countries all over the world as part of military agreements. From 1955, W. Germany has them as a NATO member vs. the Warsaw Pact countries. They're not occupations unless the armies establish control over the countries.
The US still has some of its largest overseas bases in Germany; see http://militarybases.com/overseas/germany/
