Where you stationed in Germany? What unit? Can I stay on Airborne status there? Lastly did you enjoy your experience?

Navy here I was in Stuttgart and Loved it. I don't remember seeing many Airborne but we did have a lot of Intel groups. Africom is out of Stuttgart, DIA, DISA, some NATO, You may want to look at coming down to ground level. Reading your other response we all have goals but make sure you are setting your self up for post Military success. Not much call for jumping out of Planes and humping dirt in the civi world. Yes I know its fun lol! Just keep long term in the back of your mind, good luck hope you get a chance to see Germany.

There are Airborne positions for your MOS in Stuttgart, Germany if the 75th gave you a Sierra identifier.

SSG (Join to see) I'm currently stationed in Ansbach, Germany and I fall under the Garrison. Honestly, I don't prefer my the nuances of my job in an OCONUS environment... its hard enough to follow US laws, let alone host nation laws. I'm just here for the TRAVEL. Brother, if you can budget and plan, you can see this entire continent. That has been the single most enjoyable part about being stationed in Germany. Flying RyanAir will pucker your butthole, but I'll endure shaky landings and crappy seats for $30 plane tickets any day.

And in case anyone cares, the picture above is of Rothenberg, less tan an hour from where I am. I've been there about 10 times. Great Christmas markets and other small German town kind of stuff. Its actually one of Germany's last remaining walled cities.

I was Army Reserve in Europe, but I know the only one(AB) is 173d as others stated. I do know many who had the chance to cross train with other NATO airborne troops, so if you get over here, there are endless possibilities. And being a cook can also be another way to access other country's wings. Hope it works well for you. Last I heard SF was in Stuttgart.

I am currently stationed with SOCAFRICA here in Stuttgart. It's an Airborne/Joint Service unit. You can stay on airborne status provided there is an open slot, as not all personnel are Airborne here. With that being said it's a great unit, and definitely worth it to gain some unique experience!

82nd Engineers, Bamberg, '93-'96. I've been on the street in your picture many times in nearby Rothenburg.

Company C, Special Troops, HQ USAEUR Heidelberg. Way back in ancient history, 1965-1968. Loved every day of it.

1973 to 1975 Bamberg, 82nd Combat Engineers

And, yes I enjoyed the good beer
The food..and clubs!
It was a fantastic experience that ended up in Desert Storm in 1990_91.
Right after I left, they closed it!
