Weird dude. You got jipped. Should you have been stationed in EUCOM you would have been able to visit on a Wagonlit tour or Nijmegan march. I did both plus a civvy tour as an IT-scumbag during an Amsterdam layover to/from Iraq. They love Americans, particularly in respect to the ‘43-45 NAZI-induced famine.
I was supposed to be spending the week staying with Dutch Commandos, but instead got stuck with staying at the docks, waiting for our supply ship to bring us our gear and vehicles.
