This major was primarily stationed around the Pacific rim, although he spent a short stint in Europe after he got out of college.

Told me that of all the places, he hated Korea. Did not care for Germany either.

Had two brothers who also spent some time in Germany-one during the late 50s and the other just after the Cuban Missile crisis. Both were eager to see Germany and came back disappointed. Not because of the country, but because of the arrogant attitude of some of the people-France also. The one in the USAF said that the best time he had was in England. Being a typical serviceman, he loved the pubs in England.

I enjoyed my time in Germany. I consider myself fortunate in not having been in Korea.
