LOL! I was in Auggie from ‘80 to ‘83 as an O5D but interacted with the 98Cs on a daily basis. After DLI I did Ft Polk and was then pcs’d to Berlin in 1986 - 1992.

I’d like to help with your problem just need more details. You can message them to me.

We just missed each other! I was there 85 to 88. Augsburg was a great posting!

Ok, I’ll message you hopefully tonight with my FedEx details.

Thanks!

Anyone know how to find details on WHERE manufacturing plants are being built or expanded?

Most small businesses will not survive any more extended lockdowns.

While I appreciate the article, it doesn’t tell the whole story.

Our national debt, and the fake DOW Jones still have a soon day of reckoning.

Yeah, I loved Augsburg. Probably because it was Bavaria AND it was my first duty station. Had a great three years there.

In 85 they were celebrating a small anniversary.

Augsburg was founded in 15 BC by Augustus Caesar. They were celebrating their 2000th anniversary!

It was a fun time indeed! The fests were never ending!

They are all swamped, Ecommerce grew 50% over night, it is like the days before christmas every single day for the past 5 months.

I am shipping fed ex and have no issues as of yet.

But I understand some routes are just swamped, especially rural ones

Now that’s real economic recovery. It takes some time to start manufacturing again, but it will be well worth it. And it’s certainly better than flipping burgers and proceeding to a debt collapse.

Funny how no one on here is talking about the ongoing market collapse beginning yesterday. Hmm...

I saw one report that it was due to remarks by St. Anthony Fauci.

China and the Dems have the resources to launch a significant attack on the markets, but I would think that they would save that until October.

Might be better to get valuations back to a more reasonable fundamental basis now.

This correction may have broken the logjam to get another round of corona virus relief (PPP, unemployment) moving through Congress.
