Don’t forget those of US who did a ‘tour’ in Northern Germany.
They call the wind “HAWK” for a very strong, cold reason!
Not to mention highway B-6, it’s in the Guinness world book of records as the Most Dangerous Highway & it ran in front of the Post!
Winter was Definitely Interesting! Sunrise at 1000 & sunset at 0100! Hard to try to sleep (?) when kids are playing outside of your first floor window!
Adapt & Overcome!
Learned to Sleep anywhere! Including the Parade Field in the rain!?

My German Ancestors were born in Strasbourg Germany. I didn’t know that when I was stationed at n Germany. My Great Grandfather was wealthy German with two sons (my grandfather & his brother). They were both ‘selected’ for service in SS School! My Great Grandfather took his family ( with permission) ‘on Holiday’ prior to start of SS School. They boarded a ship & Never even Looked Back! Arrived safe n Ny through Ellis Island and the rest is my history! Absolutely amazed at My Great Grandfather for his Strength, Courage, & Wisdom! Left EVERYTHING for Freedom! And people wonder why “I Poke the Bear”! It is literally in My Blood! lol That’s my Mother’s family! My Father is 100% 1st Generation Irish Greene born in USA! Then there is Me!
