   I was stationed at Graf. (permanent, block barracks) B Btry 1 BN 78 FA Fall of 1975- Spring of 1976. I was the XO driver. Reforger was awesome. Cold, but awesome. Setting up for fire missions in some farmer’s field and he would come out with home made plum brandy. Going to the Czech border and Berlin to see the wall. Speaking of walls, how about Nurenburg and “the Wall. Also, going to some of the concentration camps, reality check! If anyone has photos from this time frame, I would love to see them.

   I was stationed at Graf from 88-92 with the 535th Engr Co CSE. Best assignment I ever had! Still have several friends in the area. Loved the Green Goose, Underground and Park Cafe, then go across the street and get a sandwich from the schnitzel shack or the kon-tiki………GOOD TIMES!! HMFJW
