That was back in the Red Army Faction days.

And those wanted posters were all over the place. I wonder if they ever caught any of the perps. I sure did get tired of looking at their mugs.

I remember those. I read that the bottom-right woman fled to East Germany and was arrested and sent to prison after the wall came down. I believe any who were in jail are out by now though, even if they were sent up for murder. Germany doesn’t have long prison sentences.

Yep, remember seeing just after the attack at the base, thinking ‘86, there was a hole in the ground about the size of a car, here it is,

Regarding the Red Army. Supposedly they disbanded in 1998, via an official announcement. Most members either committed “suicide” in jail, or were killed by law enforcement or military. Of note, they tried to kill Alexander Haig in a mine incident, wound up wounding the following car of bodyguards. The legal review of how they all died in prison, whether suicide or murder, is pretty interesting.

I was across the street at HQ AFN when this baby went off. The entire cement building shook and it shattered most of the front windows which were about 50 yards away. The underground storage tank at the PX gas station was the target but the perps missed - sorta.

They did catch a many (near all) of them, but most if not all have been let go.
