Have lived here in Baden-Württemberg für 40 years - never heard that designation. To what does it refer? To Karlsruhe?

Kaiserslautern, it is a very old American military slang term for Kaiserslautern. The area is the primary hub for U.S. forces supporting NATO. Ramstein Airbase, Landstuhl Medical Center, and a host of logistical units are based in and around K-Town.
