I was AF stationed with the Army in Germany. The barracks there had a hole in the ceiling and a latrine that was possibly pre-war. We only had two shootings in there and a few fights. Not Bad for a Kaserne in the 70's.

The AFA fittings were better. But, those foofy golf courses should be privatized.

I was AF stationed with the Army in Germany...

I was in 7th Weather Squadron in the late 70's, providing weather support at an Army airfield. We had to live on the economy as the barracks at the kaserne where the airfield was at were substandard. Man, let me tell you how tough it was living in a farmhouse in the middle of spargel fields. My landlady, who we all called "Mama", would cook us lunch everyday and beautiful, young freuleins came to hang out at the house with us and we were forced to drink German beer and wine and go to great rock concerts... man, that was tough duty! :-)
