   I was in the 3/12, A troop, from Feb. of ’70 to Aug. of ’71. Spent the first half of my time as a loader on the M551 and finished up as a driver on an M114. Lots of great memories. I have a few pictures of Armstrong Kaserne if anyone is interested. Contact me through my e-mail address.

   Was the S2 for 3/61 ADA from April 82 to April 86. 3AD G2 wanted me to rotate up to a division position, but I loved Buedingen and the duck hunters so much that I politely declined. Winter REFORGER 86 was one of the more memorable exercises. I recall when someone decided to cut down all the beautiful trees that lined the main road (something about the roots were interfering with the sewage lines)…except we didn’t get permission from the Forstmeister. Got a letter from the Buergermister on that one. Was on 3/61st’s running team that was hastily organized to participate in a relay race sponsored by our Partnership unit, Flugabwehrregiment 5 at Lorch am Rhein. We were up against semi-professional teams. Those hills along the Rhein were brutal! A lot of fond memories.

   I was stationed in Budingen in 1986-88 with C Company 3/61 ADA…
   Lots of great memories of my time there, and the people of the small town of Budingen.
   How they put up with us, I have no idea….

   Hi, patrons of the Photo Lab at the Special Service Country Club in Büdingen! I was employed as photo instructor from September 1953 to May 1968 with the U.S. Army Spec. Serv.Div.. I have many wonderful memories of those years and took many pictures of activities in the club as well as portraits of our patrons. I still enjoy looking at some of those pictures. I married Gloria, a Spec. Serv. Club hostess and immigrated in May 1968 to Texas.
