How did NATO represent a historic change in American foreign policy?

Question

anonymous · Answer

It committed the U.S to a peacetime alliance to defend other nations.
Permanent control of Germany isnt exactly true.They have their own government. Teh Monroe Doctrine if memory serves me is a warning for European countries to keep out of the New World
We had bases in other places, like the Phillipines I suspect,and in Hawaii, etc.
I can't think of any alliances that committed us to defend other countries though.
