Yeah, it's interesting. Those foreign base crews are in a unique position. They are NOT hired locally, so they are part of the payroll just like other US base crews.
I know they get paid in US$ in the US even they live in foreign countries. They pay US taxes and social security etc. I don't know the details, but they are treated just like other US base crews.
I don't think they have to be Americans or living in the US.
Somebody know more about it...
