No, wait. Deutschland! Deutschland! Deutschland!
Lived there three years in the early 1950s when Dad was in the Army.

We were briefly in Garmisch, awaiting housing in Ulm,
and then Goeppingen. @AirborneHokie96 : (Note: to the best of my knowledge, my dad was never stationed at a "base". Infantry Army serves at Forts or Camps) ** Edited by PhotoHokieNC at 6/20/2026, 8:18:40 PM ** Edited by PhotoHokieNC at 6/21/2026, 5:49:58 AM
