As a former Army brat in K-town, I am so saddened by these stories.
I lived in Heidelberg outside the Army Base in Little America in 1956-57 (Holbeinring) when my father was stationed there (Navy Civil Engineer). I was in the 3rd and 4th grades in the American school. Remember the church bells on Sundays and the long Sunday Walks, the trolley cars, the people, YES the memories are priceless.
