Definitely remember enough of that list to qualify for “Old Soldier” but didn’t experience a lot of the training areas in West Germany because my unit went to Greece to fire missiles into the ocean.

I was lucky enough to get two trips to Crete. Ate my fill of calamari in Chania.

Second trip I packed my own TP. The stuff they had at Namfi was medium grade sandpaper.

Our gun units went twice a year to Todendorf. "Spring" ASP...lol, I've never been so cold in my life, bullets bounced off the frozen Baltic.

Summer ASP was great. Nearby Lutjenburg had the greatest concentration of newly divorced women that I have ever encountered.
