Original Note:
It is stated in the NYT article that the American soldiers in question are volunteers and contractors within the Armed Forces of Ukraine, not active duty servicemen. The hospital at Landstuhl is authorized to treat them under a Defense Department policy from the Pentagon. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/09/23/us/us-soldiers-ukraine-hospital-germany.html https://taskandpurpose.com/news/american-volunteers-ukraine-army-hospital-germany/
