I’m getting stationed at 1-2 CAV B Troop in Vilseck, Germany. Do you have any suggestions or ideas?

Get a tourist passport ASAP you cannot travel on a DA31 and ID card anymore. Go to JKO and do the drivers training now, your U.S? License is only a pre requisite for getting a USAREUR license. Go to millerhats.com and buy a Stetson especially if you plan on being a leader there.( not a requirement but it helps to buy into the traditions). If you are married do your command sponsorship now not after you get there. Have fun and look up operation Atlantic resolve it will drive all your training. You will be gone every other month if not more. Get out and see Europe when you have time off. It is what you make of it. And learn as much about strikers as you can it will be you taxi for all training they fairly rail load those things. And yes I just left there 18 months ago. I was in A troop 1-2 CR “WAREAGLES”.

Just remember live for the weekends. Work hard and deal with all the crazy coming your way and then relax in a big way.
