Vielen Dank für das zeigen der Bilder die Dokumente der Zeitgeschichte sind. Manche der Bilder erinnern mich an meine eigene Lebensgeschichte. Die Bilder die amerikanische Soldaten mit deutschen Frauen zeigen. Auch mein leiblicher Vater war als Soldat der amerikanischen Armee in Deutschland stationiert. Leider habe ich Ihn nie kennenlernen dürfen. Es gibt viele Menschen in Deutschland, die amerikanische Wurzeln haben. Früher nannte man uns Besatzungskinder. Die Frauen die ein Kind mit einem amerikanischen Soldaten hatten hatten es nicht leicht. Aber das ist alles lange her.

4th Infantry Division veteran here. Spent a lot of time in Graf back in the late 80s when I was stationed in Erlangen West Germany with the 1st Armored Division. Germany was amazing back then. Great memories.

... H Company 2/2 A.C.R. '72-'75 ... M60A1 main battle tank H34 ... Started as Loader, then Driver, then Spec 4 Gunner in last year ... Border duty Colberg ... NATO training constantly at Graf and Hornsfeld ... Wanted out, but turns out, those were the best years of my life ... I should have become a lifer ... LOL ... 🇺🇸 ...

8 years after WW2. 71 years ago. If the average solider was 20 they would have an average age of 91 now If any of them are still alive. Mind blowing how time flies!

I was at Binlach with 3rd ACR in 1956 - 1957 as part of Opeation Gyroscope, company commander was Capt. Crowe. If anyone was there at the same time, I'd like to hear from you.

This Base ist still active. Amazing to sweet how small the trees we're compared to now!

I had orders to Clark but Mt Pinatubo eruption prevented that from happening.

its crazy if you think that all these guys are probably dead now. Sad.

Amazing historical footage!

I guess I am the only one still living whose family member served.

My husband served in 264 Field Artillery and would never talk about what he did!

I highly Doughty any of these men are still alive

Amazing! Where do you find These treasures?

Very unter. Thanks for Sharing. I was actually in the Former Base today

Dad was 290th Fab 54 to 56. Occupation force

Awesome! Never knew there were Tanks stationed there

The plane on a pole is Ki-43 II Oscar

Nice sandy camo Boxer in there

My guess...photos were taken by a young lieutenant/captain.

Was commissioned at Scott AFB in 1981.

Thanks! Two tours in Korea here, 39 months total, in the 70's and 80s. Was there for the 'tree incident' in 76.

that was mt aryat in the background

Vielen Dank für Eueren Dienst. Ihr wart eine Bereicherung für Bamberg, in jeder Hinsicht. Viele Grüße aus Bamberg-County.

Love a military marching band

Neat! Thanks!

When everyone came back I heard them talk but whatever he did he didn’t say anything about it! Must have been secret !

He never told anyone what he did there! Not even his wife.

My husband was there!

You mis identified Mt Pinatubo. The photos are of Mt Arayat

Augsburg, Germany 86'-89',C 1/36 FA. Spent some time in Grafenwoehr.

I was in the US Army in the mid sixties, and stationed at Nurenberg, and was a dental lab tech, No field manuvers , guard duty, or KP, just my desk, bunson burner, cup of coffee, cigarette, and listening to the AFN radio....it was like a crft class , on a European vacation...

My father served at Taukkunen Barracks late 50s.

Only ten years after the war, and how fast the krauts rebuild. The most, clean, hard working, technical, fun loving folks in Europe.

I was in germany in the US Army dental corp, at william Odarby kassern, in 1966 to 1967. Back then you always went by airplane, but to make sure you stll left, 20 Days early, in case you had to go back By ship....102 weeks in the US Army...lol

I was there in Gemany ten years later, stationed in Furth, near nuremberg, in a dental laboratory unit called the 564th Medical detachment. E4 jack johnsen

Interesting seeing the M41s and the APCs whose designation escapes me. I served on M41s in the NZ army until they swopped them for Scorpion CVR(T).

That must have been good duty at that time .

I was born there in 1960

Wasn't 7th Armored involved in the defense of St. Vith during the Battle of the Bulge? Even though the city eventually fell, considered as key to holding up the Germans as the more heralded Bastogne? Interesting photos nonetheless.

Excellent. God bless all those shown.

Great Set of Pictures, The Mountains were mixed up, but some one pointed that out already ! Thanks !

My uncle was stationed in the unit with Elvis Presley. He had some great pictures of them playing poker in the mess hall late at night with a chosen few....lol

8th Infantry Division...Pathfinders..."These are my Credentials"...Golden Arrow....Baumholder 74-76. The Rock. Largest Concentration of Combat Ready Troops at that location, outside of the Continental United States.

I grew up in nearby Lampertheim...My late stepfather was Deputy Community Commander of Worms in the 1980s...

In 75 we had metal Quonset huts, outdoor showers in the winter.

Believe the Mount being shown at 1:07 is Arayat, not Pinatubo.

Love the video. The first picture may be near the Tidsworth barracks. The division was stationed there between mid June and early August before entering the continent for Operation Cobra. It's near Stonehenge.

Looks like Ft Dix NJ.

I was with the 24th ID during this time frame. I was with the 5/32 Armor at Will Kaserne Munich, from Dec 64-Aug 67.
