Hello! I really enjoyed your pics. I was stationed at nelson Kaserne with the 193rd MP Co-3rd Plt from 84-86, back then I beleive it was the 1/81st FA,2/4Inf, a maintenance support unit, and the big red one was in the area. Although I am not in the military now, it made me think back and how I had a blast, and I loved going down to Garmisch to ski. Bill Morris

Great pics, I was in Svc Btry 1969-1972 and again 1973-1977. I SPENT ANOTHER 10 years in Frankfurt at the Pershing Mod Shop. I retired in 1992. A long and wonderful Pershing career. I was at the final pershing elimination at Longhorn Army Depot May 1991. What a sad day it was for all of us there. I retired when the Pershing was retired. Gerald Cable 46N and 21L.

I came across this site and it brought back so many fond memories for me (well, those I can remember after having one Geisenhalbe too many). I lived in Neu-Ulm (first Voehringen then Ludwigsfeld by the Lake)as a civilian from 1979-1990. Wiley and Nelson barracks were my home away from home and I made so many friends there..to name a few...Brian Liston, Clyde Booth, Paul Rangel, Alec Smith, Steve Toth, David Hawk and more too many to mention. I loved the pics of the surrounding area and if you have more where they came from, I would love to know if you could post those as well. Anyway, cool site and I will visit it often. Take care...Karin Murphy (formerly Wuest)...P.S.I have pics posted of myself on militaryconnections.com under the 2/4 Infantry and Wiley sites. Maybe someone will recognize me and send me an email (murphysgrl65@msn.com)

Name: Carl D. Oyler Email: carl@indy.rr.com Phone: 800-953-6224 I was a clerk in Svc Btry, 1st Battalion, 81st Artillery, (Pershing Missile Unit)for Capt Orr & CWO Stillman. Our unit of approx 650 shipped to Robert E. Lee Barracks, Mainz, Germany, from Ft Sill Ok, in July of 64. I was at REL Barracks for one yr. Jerry Boruff, Bill Keene, & I got together last Sept (2001) & had drinking reunion. Would love to hear from others. It seems there are no 1st/81st reunions. Presently I am an investigator for a law firm in Marion, IN. I have done some searching for 1st/81st & have had very little success. One of the atty's in our firm handles strictly VA cases. I stumbled across this site looking for some material to assist one of our veterans. He, John Riser, claims to have witnessed a helicopter crash at Wiley Barracks, Neu Ulm, Germany, as his entire battalion stood in muster formation. He was with Battery D, 1st/81st. He was there in May, June, & July, 1970. He thinks it was on a Monday in June, but not sure of exact date. If there is anyone reading this that witnessed that same helicopter crash I would certainly appreciate a contact. Riser only recalls a cple of names in his unit there, LTC Jack Goldstein & SGT E5 James Stein. I noticed the 1st entry in this material is from someone who was stationed at Neu Ulm from March, 70/March, 73. Perhaps he could help, he gave no name, phone, or email. Thanks for any help!!!!!!

As I remember it then, there were only two buildings on the site. One of which another platoon burnt down when they let the Oil burner heater overheat. Good times though.

Great web site, there ARE others who remember Wiley Barracks!! My name is Mike Hardtke, and I was with D 1/81 FA Pershing from Dec 1974 to June 1977. I was the Btry Driver for Major Wayne Williams. My nickname at that time was "Germ". Spent time at Inneringen, and helped open Fort Von Stueben (Pershing Cass Sites). Made many good German friends I have stayed in touch with. I went back with my Family in 1995, and walked around Wiley (It was a refugee center at that time). Went inside D Btry (Great Memories), and walked around down by the Motor Pool (No wurst stand anymore). I went in the Reserves after my Active Duty time, and retired with 21 Years in 1999. How do I access these pictures everyone kepps mentioning ??? I also took a few pictures when I went back. I have stayed in touch with a few guys from the Wiley days (Greg Kelly, Mark Opperman, David Merkel) and know how to get in touch with them. We have been looking for a good friend who dissapeared when he left Germany (James Skeens ie "Bones"), Anyone know who he is or where he might be?? Feel free to E-Mail me at Hardtkeclan@earthlink. net.

1st of all, Great Site. Thanks Richard Elzey, for the Forward. I had a geat time in Ulm/Neu Ulm during my tour. (86-89) A post mentioned my 2nd home, "Capo's"...Is it still there. And how is the old guy (owner)-Capo? He would often share his stories/pics w/us regulars. Dunkleweizens & great tunes on the juke box! Let's not forget his cute waitress/staff..Would like to hear from anyone that was there (Wiley) at that time. Saw quite a few familiar faces. Anyone having info on David Rochon, Tom Nicholson, or other FDC crew, please contact me at WARdogz@WEBTV.net. And about the great beer---I found Steinweizen at the "Spec's" in my city. >>>>...Allen Roush, A 2/5 F.A. went to Bravo btry after I made E-5.

My name is Alan Nehring and I was with the 22d Medical Detachment at Wiley Kaserne from April 1974 to May 1976. It was interesting to see pictures of the medical facility where I worked, lived, and most important of all had a great time. Love to hear from old friends from this time era. I can be reached at alannehring@msn.com P.S. A great addition to this website would be pictures from the different time eras.

My name is John Chidester. I was stationed with the 579th Ord Co from about Feb 68 to Dec 69. After completing Missile & Munitions School at Redstone Arsenal, Huntsville Alabama (21K20), I was shipped to Germany. At the time of my arrival, the 579th had just moved to Wartburg Kaserne in Pforzheim. Before I shipped home, the unit moved to Neu Ulm. I believe it was Nelson Barracks, but not positive. Commander while I was there was Maj. Heubauer. Other Officers were CPT Wu and CPT Paulson. Even though I graduated with 21K20 - Test Station Repair, I quickly became the Security Clerk, then the CO's clerk. My then best friend Wes DeVries of Rutherford NJ also 21K20 became the Postal Clerk. I'd like to hear from anyone in 579th 1968-1969. Chidester@MemberTrends.com. I'm now located in Scottsdale, AZ. Originally from Port Huron MI.

A fabulous site that reminds one that the Pershing was an outstanding weapon with some outstanding troopers that took their mission very seriously. I was assigned to Svc Battery, 1/81 Arty in Mainz and Wackernheim, Germany as a G&C repairman during 1965-1968 and found it to be the most rewarding period of my military career. Willis M. Wyrick

Remember riding to Stugart for finance, and going to Ulm/New Ulm for a night out. Also remember the base Enlisted Men's Club and Hong Kong Charlie and his "sharkshin" suits. I remember the chopper crash also, "A" battery barracks was almost hit, I remember taking photos, but don't remember the fatality. Also remember the cold nights on manuever at Strauss Field. Was 15E30, which I think was el operator. Never did make E-5. If anyone is out there that remembers me please write. email is danduncan@inet99.net

Thom Boze, Don't remember you either, but like you said, "brother", we walked the same ground. I can't remember what the field site was called, was it Redlington? or something like that, or Interling? HELP, my brain cells are gone. I do know that going to the field for 30 days was better than staying on base. I remember the first night I pulled guard duty in the motor pool. Nice weapon but no ammo. I also remember "making bo-coo" money pulling others KP and guard duty because they wanted to go out the first of the month. If you could hold onto your money until about the 25th of the month you could sell your KP and guard duty shifts for a pack of smokes. Loaned money once but never got it back so I decided the best thing to do was barter in goods than cash. There was this huge black dude named Ovaltine (I think) that was our platoon sgt. Great guy. There was also a cook named Bob (Patton I think was his last name) that I teamed up with for a USO show. Some officer heard us playing one Sunday at the service club and booked us for a rock and soul show to several surrounding camps. Was a lot of fun. Take care and I'll check back in a couple of days.

I was with the 579th Ord at Wartburg in Phorzhiem when the Company moved to Nelson Barracks in Neu Elm Feb 68 to Nov 68. There was just a handful of us left behind I was the SOG and we had one officer with us but I never saw him .Sgt Uwe Korting and Sgt Meyers were our platoon leaders . When they left for Neu Elm I think that I was in charge of the kaserne other than the invisable LT. We really missed our friends that moved but had one hell of a good time with the guys left behind .I can't remember what my job was I think that was just a good place for some clerk in DC to send me after Nam .Great site Dave Keough . dkeo@mit.edu

What a story about wizzing in the potatoes while on KP at Inneringen, but it wasn't me. (At least I don't remember) One thing I do remember from Inneringen, was taking part in painting a duece and a half with glossy OD, what a shine it gave off. We did get in some trouble for that. Also remember "stopping" up the drains on the huge sink basin with face cloths and filling it with water to take a bath. I have some old photos I can share from Ulm.

Hey Duncan--remember Darby from Two Egg Florida? He plugged that huge sink in my barracks the first time I was at Inneringen. We didn't have showers in our building and had to walk across to the next building. I think you were the guy who showed me how to attach charges to the missile the first day I was assigned to the unit. Eventually became battery clerk and probably did your paperwork to send you home. How about Doppmann? And Sidney (?) from Massachusetts? Smallwod from W. VA? Ray Ruge from Illinois? Paul Anderson-KY. Can't remember your Plt Sgt but there was a Sgt Thomas in charge of one and Lytle had 2nd Plt. Galyean had HQ. Salvant had Mess Hall, Harris was supply sgt. Bunch was the XO, Bird the CO, and Durden the 1SG. Medina had missile maint--the 21 G's I think they were. Lt's were Crawford, Cholis, Pilsbury and a Warrant named Vance. Brewer, Cain, Witsman (?) were clerks. At Inneringen March 71 we had an E-6 who got court martialed for beating up Flynn, but can't remember his name. Razar was there too. Marco Spear. Copeland, Jacobsen, La Salle--too many guys and too long ago. Check out the photos for 1/81, maybe it will jog your memory.

Great site. I was in 2-5 FA from 83-91, both at Riley and then in Neu Ulm. I went from 2LT to command of Alpha, took it to DS/DS and then inactivated in March 1991. John Kolessar and I re-visited Neu Ulm a couple of years ago and it is much changed...although Capo and Lotti are still in Neu Ulm and have a couple of bars, including the original "Capos". 2-5 FA is again in the active force, just stationed at Fort Sill. I am the current Battalion Commander of 2-5 FA, even had another old 2-5'er as my CSM initially, CSM(R) Randall Woods...I've seen COL(R) Elder several times over the last few years, along with other old 2-5'ers, BG Rhett Hernandez, LTC Vince Price (commands a battalion down the street), LTC Pat Antoneitti, MAJ John Kolessar, and a host of others.

Great site!. Lot's of memory. SPC4 Lau from the 74th Pershing at Lagerlechfield 1971-72. Flown glider there with my German buddies at the air field. Anyone remember a freezing winter drill where guys were getting ready for the sac and I had to go on guard duty. Notice sarge had a c-ration can of deisel fuel laying on the pit fire and when it got hot, shot up flames over a foot high. Me and my great idea, got a gallon ration container from my German driver and did the same. Well, out in the field, the German guards were talking about a forest fire that lite the night sky in the direction of our camp. Anyway, when I got back it was nice and warm. Charles, Dixon... I hope life have been warm and kind to all of you for now and forever. Would like to exchange old photo if you have any. Email me at COMPUDOC_STAN@HOTMAIL.COM.

Great site. It brought back a lot of memories. My MOS was 15E10- Pershing Missile Crewman. I was with C Btry  1/81 FA for a short time from 1974 to 1975 and was transferred out because I was unable to obtain a surety clearance. My Battery Commander was Major Kedra. I never did get to be a crewman but was assigned the responsibility of driving and maintaining a deuce and a half. Does anyone remember the "dirty 30" ? Our battery participated in a warhead change at Inneringen where I got to lie in the snow for most of the day outside of the Inneringen site humping an M-60, spare barrel, 2 cans of 7.62, my M-16, ammo for that and my TA-50. The little bar at the Inneringen site was great. Really enjoyed that Sonnenbrau. After drinking a bunch of it, I tattooed myself with a pin, thread and india ink. I remember tossing a frisbee in the snow with SSGT. Roten. In 1975, a bunch of us went to the Bodensee for the 4th. of July, rented some small electric powered boats and shot fireworks off out on the lake. Some of the guys I remember were Randall (Space Cowboy), Bitchin Bob Besner, Golson(who crashed his deuce and a half), Laird, Bill Hulse, Olson ( who got a brand new 5 ton truck built in 1958) for the warhead change at Inneringen. I got transferred to the 9th. Engineer Batallion in Aschaffenberg in '75-'76 and ETS'd there. If anyone remembers me, John Kohler, contact me at kohler@nwlink.com. I had some photos but they got lost somewhere along the way.

Boy this is like old home week. I joined the 5th Platoon of the 579th on Thanksgiving Day, 1966 while it was at Kaiserslautern, move with it to Pforzheim, and moved with it to Neu Ulm. I left there in August 1970 and went back to Redstone, then to Whitesands Missile Range, took a side trip to Green River Utah. Made Warrant Officer at Whitesands, then went to 3rd Platoon C Battry 1/81 FA in Neu Ulm. I have lots of good memories from Pforzheim, Neu Ulm, and last but not least The Inneringen CAS site.

I was with A/1/81 March 71-April 72 and spent 3 tours out at Inneringen--first one--(March 71-May?)was a double shift to cover for a battery back in the states to fire. We had a 4 beer per night limit at the bar on site and one night a week they were closed (Monday?), but if you went down to the boiler room the little German civilian who ran it would sell you 5 bottles of Sonnenbrau (with the flip tops) for a dollar. You had to bring back the empties to him. I pulled backup alert force on the site about my second tour--September 71--but they never issued us live ammo. The only live rounds I ever had were when we went to a rifle range in the summer to qualify--gave us about 30 rounds and then doubled whatever score we had to meet their standards. Must have been short on ammo. SSG Roten was there with us in 71-72--think he was a fairly young guy, married, had been with Air Defense units before Pershing. Does anyone know if the Inneringen site is still there, and what they are using it for, or did they bulldoze it like they did Wiley Kaserne? Gene Smania

This is absolutely amazing. While the yearbook turned out be a great idea, but financially unsound, it seems to be finally filling some kind of purpose.

I'm Greg Lucht and served with Svc Btry, HHB 1/81 FA and the Wiley Fire Dept from Feb 70 to Jul 72. Worked for CPT Smith (SVC Btry) who was a great commander (and a little wild)and CPT Reaves (HHB). I keep seeing Thom Boze's name coming up, but I didn't see his Post. Hi Thom!! The last time I saw you was at the Holzkiste that I managed in 73. A lot went down back then: Helicopter crash, B Btry fire, 5 trucks fire bombed, race riots, Baader-Mienhof, Fast Eddie, Pershing's first trip to Graf ( was on SV-103 the Ord Plt wrecker). I was on guard duty at the Main Gate when the Sikorsky went up, popped wqhite smoke and came right down. Inially no one was hurt, but the crew chief (with about 27 days left in the Army) tried to abandon the copter. He didn't know that it was tilted to the right. We yelled for him to stay put but he probably didn't hear us. He ran forward and the first blade stuck him and knocked him down. He was crawling away and the second blade nailed him and took his head off. There was a formation right where the copet went down, but they all scattered when they knew what was going on. I'd love to hear from any of you that know me (unless I owe you money, ha ha). This site has great pictures. Email me at luchtg@traderlucht.com

Good guy's there - Pappy, Duncan, McKelvey. I think Bill and Pappy may have shared a room. Would enjoy hearing from anyone there at that time. 1st Sgt. was DJ "45 and 45 by high noon" Johnson.

I guess I'm an old timer when it comes to Wiley.My name is Don Palumbo.I was the battallion Mail clerk with Hq&Hq 2d Armored Rifle Battallion 41st Inf. 4th Armored Division 1959-1961. Some of the best moments in my life were spent in Ulm/Neu Ulm. Its amazing to see those pictures.Most of the buildings were still pretty well shot up since ww2 when I got there,though they were all patched you could see the straifing that happened. During the Berlin wall crisis I was with the 4th Inf at Ft Lewis,Washington,got extended by Pres.Kennedy and flew back to Germany on Operation "Long Thrust" We picked up our equipment at Bremerhaven and would you believe that on our way to Wildflecken we stayed over one night at Wiley. Now the best---The 41st moved over to Nelson and left Wiley open for all the units coming in from the USA,and not only did I stay there that night but I slept in my old room.Hq Co. was in he fist building on the right as you came in the gate. Fortunately I was able to visit my old buddys at the 41st that night.I stayed with Bob Parker {my replacement Bn.mail clerk}and it was really great to see him. If anyone knows how to get in touch with him,Capt.Theodore Smith,Capt.Sidney C.Lundgren,or 1st Sgt Carlton T. Brown Please let me know. email---patdonusa1usa@netscape.net

Wow,GREAT site! I was in A Btry 1-81 Arty Survey Section Nov70-Jun71. Was just settling in nicely when I got orders for Vietnam. I was in the room at Inneringen the night SSgt Parker beat up Sp/4 Flynn. Parker got busted to E-5 and assigned to D Btry. Yeah, I remember the Bloody Bucket, the EM club and the base theater that wouldn't allow blue jeans! I also had to go to another Bldg to use the showers. Strauss was the Alert Site. Any body remember Arnone's Alert? Survey Section was SSgt Dow, Sp/5 Coulter,Sp/4 then Sp/5 Swenson, Sp/4 Borr & me PFC then Sp/4 Stowe. Dan Duncan--I don't remember you but I'm sure we must have met. rkstowe@att.net

Stowe--sorry I don't remember you. Were you assigned as a KP with Flynn @ Inneringen. I was a new guy and on the opposite shift on KP. We were across the hall the night of the Parker deal. E-5 Razar was with Parker and he got into some of it too as I remember. The only kp's I remember on that shift were Flynn and Love (another new guy). Before I left the site I had been moved to Battery Clerk with Stacy, Cain, and Brewer. Another new guy-Ed Carr-went into the survey section. Love became the armorer with Christopher and an E-5 whose name just escaped my mind. Never knew what happened to Parker--knew he went to Mannheim for a while right after the attack. Some of those names ring bells--Ludwig--did a lot of paperwork on him! I rember a Thompson who was the wrecker operator (?) and got married to another GI's daughter. Marco was in my original platoon and Duncan was in one of the firing sections. Can't put a finger on most of the rest of the names you mentioned in survey. Still in touch with BC, 1sg, and some of the others. Marco was a buddy; from Chicago area. Gene Smania

Gene Smania--Yup, I was on the other KP shift. Do you remember the mess sergeant's names? There was a real tall E-6 and a short and wide E7 or E8 who seem pretty ornery at first but turned out to be OK. I have a picture of Ed (Curly) Carr. Thanks for all the pics you put on the 1/81 site. Neu Ulm was a great spot. You have an email address? rkstowe@att.net

Stowe--the mess sgt was SFC Gaines H. Salvant--about the first or second day Medina came into our bay with him @ 7 AM or so and insisted we had to have the place up and running for inspection every morning. Salvant told him we were his KP's and we didn't need to be up and going at that time because we didn't have to report for duty until noon. Told him to come in about 930 and things would be strack. We were all still in bed, making off we were asleep but we heard it all. Medina didn't like it, but agreed to try it. He came back @ 930 on the dot and we had the place up and running--asked if we could help him and he said no. Never bothered us again. Salvant was a good guy--took care of his men and we went out of our way to please him. I did his retirement papers and he got the OK when we were @ Inneringen in Sep/Oct 71. Walked in to breakfast to find him--THE mess sgt, an E-7--taking orders and cooking omelets! When he got to me I said something about him being real happy and he told me his retirement had come thru, then he offered to cook me breakfast any way I wanted it. Great guy, lost touch with him once he left the unit. The other cook I remember from that stint on KP was sgt Brown--thought he was an E-5, but could be wrong. Tall, thin black guy who turned out to be OK too. It may have been KP, but it was a good job--warm, dry, time off, no hassles from any of the other guys. Us new guys didn't have any clearances yet so they couldn't assign us to pull point guard which was good because they hadn't given us any TA 50 and winter in Germany as we all know is not nice. Later on, back @ Wiley, I remember Salvant having 3 cooks (the whole section), all of whom got a social disease @ the same time and couldn't work with food. That made for some interesting dealing with the other batteries I imagine. Ed Carr got out just before I did--maybe March 72--on that RIF deal. If you could get an NG or Reserve unit back home to take you and you had 18 months in you could go home and serve the rest of the tour with them. If you were a US and had 19 months in you went home, period. Only way to stay was sign an intent to re-enlist or get a colonel or higher to sign some paperwork. Had one full bird on the whole base and he was community leader. I don't remember anybody saying no, I don't want to go home! For the e-mail try techoyr@yahoo.com

It is weird, I remember we couldnt wait to " get back to the world", counted every day down inside of a year getting short etc. etc. I guess we all find some common ground between freezing your tail off in the mud and /or snow at Graf, and festing all summer long comes down to we were all in the same boat.

Your web site brings back many good memories of Wiley and Nelson barracks. I was a civilian working at AEG-Telefunken across town but went to church at the chapel on Wiley from 1970 to 1982. Made many friends at Wiley and Nelson. Was later working in Bonn as an Air Force contractor and had the opportunity to travel to Ulm/Neu-Ulm where the Bonn High School football team beat the Neu-Ulm High School team in 1988. I was the Bonn assistant football coach at the time! Great photos!

Hi... just came on to your site.. Great Job!! I was with B-2/4Inf (Nelson Kaserne) from Oct '72 to Apr '74. Supporting 1/81FA and a tour to 1/41 when Inneringen was being updated. Was quite the airshow the day they moved all the Pershings and equipment out. The Yom Kipper War alert of Oct '73 was probably the scariest moment over there. I turned around to see all the Pershings erected... wondering what was going on as I had heard that the erecting was an 'act of war'. (?) Any other B-2/4 guys out there? Please drop me a note! Would like to catch up with you guys again someday! Thanks, Kevin Keefe sargemajor@hotmail.com  Kevin Keefe

I was at Wiley, 1/81FA HSB from Dec. 82 thru Nov. 84. Got out early and yes that was a mistake; live and learn. I miss many great people there and think of them often. Cpt. Munnyhun, Sgt. Bunz, "Commodore" Steve and Silvia, Sgt. John "Not guard duty? Yes, guard duty." Yenter, SP5 "Watch out where the huskies go, and don't you eat that yellow snow" McKinnon, Sgt. Donnell, "ZAAAPP" Ybarra, "Dead Meat" Salusa, Sgt. Bennet, Mrs. "Minnie Mouse's T-shirt never looked so good!" Trent, Sgt. Rod, Cpt. Jed "I jes got to send you to CCF", "Crave-a-hole" Carvajal, PFC Linda Heydt from Allentown PA, Curtis Crudup, "Brick" Oliver, the Smaj iz trippin', Torres-Aponte, "platoon" Parham, and too many others to mention, but not forget. There were also many good things Deutchen to remember and miss: Gold Ochsen Hefe Weizen, schnitzles, currywurst, etc. Those were two of the best years of my life; I had plenty of good times and some not so good times there, like guard duty and CQ, etc. It seems like it was so long ago, but it was just yesterday...

I was stationed at Ford Barracks, Neu Ulm, 1963-65, HHC, 2nd Bn, 51st Inf. Col. W.W.West III was the Battalion Commander. I'll never forget the night we were called out on "Alert", after President Kennedy was assasinated. The German folks were burning the candles from their windows, as a sign of respect, as we drove our "pc's" down the streets enroute to our rendevous area. I remember climbing the many steps up the steeple Muenster(?), what a fantastic view from the top, I believe about 5 or 6 was able to stand around the steeple top. Yes, it was another time, another place. Thank you for the opportunity to wander back into another era.

Hello-I'm a 15 year old teenager from the state of Wisconsin. I am an avid runner and was going through a bunch of books at my church. I came upon "The Complete Book of Running" and was excited to read it. When I began reading it I discovered that copyright was from 1977! As I flipped through the book I found two pieces of paper and clippings from a newspaper. The slips of paper were a form for Request and authority for leave. The name reads Russell F. Herrick. It reads that his Organization and station was Wiley Barracks Neu Ulm Germany Svc Btry, 1/81st FA APO NY 09035 Out of curiosity I hopped on-line and typed in "Wiley Bararcks" at Google. This site came up and I just couldn't resist the temptation to try and find out more about this person. I'm hoping that he'll reply.. chances are slim but I have hope. He asked to leave on 22 Feb 79. I'm sure none of you know Russell F. Herrick BUT If you can reply please do or know how I could find out anything about him it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.

Info on R.F. Herrick maybe found at Yahoo.com, under group's, PershingMissile is the name of the group. 1/81 FA was a Battion in the 56FA Brigade, Pershing1, P1a, and Pershing 2 Missile was it's unit mission. Or just key in Pershing 2 missile on google and these sites will come up. Lots of history, a unique military brigade. At that time he would of worked with the P1a system. Hope I shed a little lite on it.

How is it that I didn't get in the 2/5 yearbook, I carried A battery on my back for four years and for this I get snubbed. When I went thru the book I didn't even bother looking at names because I remember each one of you like it was yesterday. I've gone back to ULM twice since 88 allot has changed since then ,I thought it would be better without the birthcontrol haircut, not even close. I miss those days and all of A 2/5 FA  IF any of you goofs are ever in CHI TOWN look me up at the downtown Marriott Ive gotten much better Spec4 Geoff Stasch or email bigstoop2001@msn.com

Harry...Herrick and I served together in SVC BRTY 1/81 FA during that time period. His nickname was "Haus" even though he would call everyone that name. As a chance, there should be an address on thet leave form where he was taking leave at. There were others like "Pooh Bear", Mulvanie, Frankie, Corico, Griffin, Lucky Barton, Fat Stanley, Fuentes, Bull, and many others. If you or anyone else is interested in the time from 1977-1980, drop me an E-mail at sanderson21@nc.rr.com. There is plenty more memories that can be shared. Scott

Ran across your website while surfing the web during my lunch hour and thought it was great. I was stationed at the Neu-Ulm Army Airfield from March 1963 until August 1965 so a lot of fond memories came to mind. We were attached to Headquarters Company First Brigade acting as observation and support for the Brigade.I'm sure I would not recognize the area now.Nice to walk down memory lane and think about all the great friends I made while there. The beer was a pleasant thought as well. Thanks much. jimbauer@mtn-state.com

Hello 2-5'ers. My name is Ken Harmon. I was with Alpha 2/5 during 87-90, under CPT Cotter and CPT Bridgeford (now LTC). Good to see some names & pictures from the past - SSG Washington (great gun chief), SGT Ben Rodriguez (best soldier I ever met), Bean (who lived there forever I think) and all the others. I saw a post from SGT Elzey, my gunner when I first showed up. Some other names should be mentioned as well - Anderson (spanky), Jim Rose, Eric Orser (J.O.), Smoke Weatherall, Wegiel, Rowe, McCrady, Pankratz, Buck, Coughlin, Little Joe Diaz. Loved those days - my wife and I have been there twice since then. Good to see that 2/5 is back in action at Ft. Sill. Anybody want to share some old stories, e-mail me at harmonk@kochind.com.

Served with the 1/81 69 - 70 and moved on up to Heidelberg. Remember CPT George Smith quite well but lost track with him as well as all the other fine people I served with while in Neu Ulm. I reported in in '69 as the Bn Dep CO just shortly before LTC Walter Phillips left and held the job of acting CO until LTC Jack Goldstein reported in. I then moved up to Heidelberg shortly after as I was promoted out of the job. I consider 1/81 and Pershing to be my premier assignment in my twenty.

Mike Winstead here. I was in 2d Bn, 4th Inf from Mar 83 to Mar 86. I served with Mark Grubbs, SSG Falcon, SSG Ulunayano (SP?) SPC Birky and many more great soldiers who I admired very much. I want to thank all of those soldiers and friends. It was a tough job out in the guard towers on Von Steuben Combat Alert Site. Remember the Flint Lock Exercises, the time our deuce was sliding down Deadman's Curve in Wildflecken; and the time Grubbs and Doub came to visit on Christmas Day? Mark and Doub, if you read this please write me at michael.winstead@je.jfcom.mil. Take care and I wish you the very best. VR Mike

I was in Delta battery 1/81 FA from August 85 to Jan 87. I remember Shake up, that place was off limits. Remember cas sight? Oh ya, i was on R&R in july 86 from cas sight. Some idiot threw his M-16 over the fence while on gaurd duty. The whole post was on alert that day looking for the M16 that went over the fence.i was smart enough to leave as soon as posible on my bike and rented a hotel room so i dont get caught to help find the missing weapon.Rumor has it that day the dude threw his M16 over the fence was paid big bucks by a terrorist to tose it over. Im sure he did some time in manheim.

About the M-16 going over the fence. I was in his Plt (B 1/9, 3rd plt). I got the call at about 8-9pm? That there was a total recall, report ASAP. I lived way offpost. I thought the damm baloon was getting ready to go up. There is a German girl mixed in there also with this dudd. I heard he got 1300 for it. I don't recall much, he was a loner, who got mixed up into some seedy stuff. I have a friend who knows alot more. When I find out more, I'll update.

To the Guy in D 1/81FA, mid 80's, and the M-16 going over the fence while on Guard duty. I was pulling guard duty that night with him. We all came back to the guard shack after being releaved, and crashed out. Next shift he starts screaming that his M-16 is missing, claims someone stole it from the "locked gun rack". Hindsight was, he did not have it with him when we rotated back to the shack, he had already tossed it over the fence to his skank german girlfriend, and he slipped by the SOG when we locked our weapons, until next shift. His name was Pvt Ring, redheaded kid, he went AWOL after this happened and dyed his hair black, while living with his skank girlfriend, CID could not press charges at the time his weapon vanished, so they released him back to our unit. First chance he had, he ran and went awol. We got the M-16 back from his skank girlfriend, no terrorist plot, just a stupid punk. He was married and had a new baby back in the states. This guy was a real loser. Our plt never took to him, he was just one of those types that you knew after being around him for 5 minutes to stay away from. Not sure if he went to Manheim or Leavenworth, or just got a dishonorable discharge.

In the early or mid 70's my father was stationed @Wiley Kaserne. In 1980-83 he got sent back and took us with him. He was in the 2/33. I don't know much about his job back then, other than he worked in the motorpool and wore the "Big Red One" patch on his shoulder. We lived in Ford housing. Ulm was our first of 2 tours in Germany. We spent 86-89 In Ansbach. Germany was a blast! Thanks Dad!

Hi...I posted a message on here about 2 years ago and thought I'd update it. My name is Karin Murphy (formerly Wuest) and I was a civilian living in Neu-Ulm from 1979-1990. Initially in Voehringen with my grandmother and then in Ludwigsfeld with my mother and brother. Spent many hours at Capos (in Ulm and Neu-Ulm), the Shake-up, Red Max, Blackhouse, the bowling alley across the street from Wiley, and the lake in Ludwigsfeld during the summer months. People I knew were: Brian Liston, Clyde Booth, Paul Rangel, Kevin "Two-ski" Touhy (who I reunited with after 20 years back in December of last year), Tony Scalzo (who passed away a few years ago), Leon Hunzeker, Alec Smith, Steve Toth, David Hawk, Steve Vaccaro, Marjefka "Sparky", John Miller "Hoghead", Robdog, Syd Crandall (who is still married to Evi, lives in Ulm and has two children), and the list goes on. I will never forget those years, the friends/boyfriends that came and went, the happy and sad times we shared, the Geisenhalbes and endless shots of Apfelkornschnapps, but most of all the wonderful memories that remain and seem like only yesterday. If anyone remembers me, my email address is cheesepoofs1965@hotmail.com. Tschuess!

Hi! I've been searching for some old pictures of ulm on the net when I found your great site. I live in Ulm for over 30 years now. As a child I've been @ wiley for rodeo or "hells drivers". The only thing I can remember was your excellent ice cream ;-). Later, as a teenager, I came to buy cigarettes (your Winston really tasted better than ours). And in the 80's I came to you with the "Friedensbewegung" to demonstrate against Pershing@Neu-Ulm (... one of these nurds). Today I'm happy that I found this site. For us in (Neu-)Ulm it's history (as it's for you), but it's very interesting anyway. This might be of interest for you: todays article/picture about the Wiley area in the "Südwestpresse": http://www.suedwest-aktiv.de/region/swp_ulm/ulm_und_neu_ulm/1031959/artikel.php (I think this link will work only for some days).

Nothing better to do on a Fri night then to stumble around on the web. And lo and behold the pershing pages still exist. I was in D 4/9, 84-87 and C 1/9 88-91, we put them to bed. For those of you who don't know, Wiley was to be turned into a housing area for the citizens so i heard before i left. No telling of lemgrube, i saw 'em tear down the oop's shelters and never had to go back up. Wiley was a real gost town in 91, real lonley. What memories, its real hard to make the outsiders understand about Pershing and its people, glad to see some are still around, and for those of you that rode our shirt tails to glory or just did'nt have what it took to be in a firing battery, we still love ya.

Hi, my Dads name is Golden Link and he was stationed at Wiley from I believe 74-77. He had friends named David Johnson, Sapata and Goreous as well as a guy who use to clean cars that was named "German Joe". I was a kid back then and barely remember these people but my dad would love it if anyone knows where any of these people are especially David Johnson. My dad Golden Link was a cook from 74-77 and I remember going into the mess hall and seeing a big painting of a astronaut standing on the moon. If anyone remembers Golden link please e-mail me at linkartworks@knology.net and I will hook you up with him. Thanks

My name is Tony South. (awsouth@yahoo.com)I was stationed at Wiley from 10/83 thru 10/87.I've posted here about a year ago. I was with the unit that went to Riley but stayed in Germany and was re-assigned to 2/5 FA because my wife was pregnant at the time and she wasn't able to make the flight. So they let me stay in Germany instead of going to Kansas. I'm looking for people that may remember me from both units. I was with Alpha Battery before 2/5 came. Then I was in Service Battery 2/5 after they came to Wiley. I was a 45D, Turret Mechanic. If you know me please give me a shout.

Pretty wild site you got here. I'm (was) Sgt. Rey Lucido or "juicy lucy". Stationed with 26th signal detachment at HQ 56th Arty Brigade in Schwabisch Gmuend, Bismark Kasserne, 1972-1976 (the little building across from the EM club. Would like to hear from old friends, both German and American. Greg Noller, David Ray, gas man Allen Howard, Sarah Brooker, LT "Frumpy" Fraza, Traicheck, Ed Merricks, The Major, the Weiner family (Inge, Hydron, Krista, Anne Weber, Yogi Schmidt (Semeramis), Apostolie Moustikidis (International bar and grill), "Rosie" across the street, Gen. Milton Key, Commander, Ted Smith, Sugar bear, Chester Orr, friends of the Lippl family (Gertrud, Elka, Manu), man what a flood of memories. Anyone remember crashout sites 66, 68, and 73? I was there about 10 years ago and it's all gone. Turned 73 into a TV tower. Was also at Wharton barracks for awhile and Hardt Kasserne. If anyone from Schwabisch Gmuend sees this, say hi to Gerhard Keim! Remember St. Tropez? By the way, Bismark was the first "streaking" in Germany. Yea, I was a part of that in '73. Right across the stage during a movie at the theatre. locked down the base for three days till someone confessed, but no one would. God those were the best 4 years of my life, just didn't know it 'till years later. If you were there, email lucydoo@comcast.net

Great Site. I'm a student living on the former Wiley-base. It's really interesting to see those old pictures. It's amazing how this area has changed. Some of the old buildings are still used as student dorms. Most building have been removed and the area is now used as a housing area. You did a great job on gathering all these pictures! Great Job!

Like some of you, I was surfing the web at lunch and ran across this site. My name is Jerry Jarowitz. I was a SP4 stationed at Nelson Barracks at the 579th Ord Co from Memorial Day weekend 1973 until October of 1975. This site brought back many a fond and funny memory. I was in the Data Processing section of the Warehouse platoon at Nelson and processed all those punch card requisitions that came through from you guys when you needed replacement parts for the Pershing Missile and support equipment. You know those times... when you had too much of a buzz going and hit some of those terrific trees out there in the forests and knocked important pieces loose or off. Or, you turned some corner too sharply trying to make sure you got going in the right direction because the street you were on said "Einfahrt" and all the other vehicles were coming at you. It was nice to see the barracks again in these photos and that familiar building at the end of the parking lot that got so much attention... the mess hall. I remember many a Saturday afternoon walking on that small cut through street that connected Nelson and Wiley Barracks (went through the housing area)on my way to the PX, or walking down the street by the graveyard that led to the AMEX office. Like some of you mentioned, there was some great food and beer over there. And how many hours did we all chase (or dream about chasing) frauleins along the river walk? With a couple of those dark German beers in you, the task seemed much more likely to be successful. And after 4 or 5 of those in you, the outcome was no longer of any real significance. Finding your way back at night across the river through those small side streets surrounding the cathedral was a greater challenge. My wife and I had a chance to go back and visit Ulm in 1996, and I was surprised to see that Nelson appeared to be some kind of housing project, but the baseball field, basketball court, and most of the buildings remained, although in much worse shape then when I left. I was hoping to see if my boots were still hanging in that tree outside my barracks that I had thrown there in celebration of my last trip out the front gate. Alas, somebody had claimed them... and all the others that used to hang there. I took the time to walk up to the top of the Muenster again and look out over the city. Same great view. Although, down below in the Muenster platz where they used to have the Saturday morning farmers market there was a white ultra-modern commercial building that really looked out of place. By the way, that walk to the top is a heck of lot easier when you're in your early twenties! Well, I'm sure we all have some great memories we could post about Stuttgart, Augsburg, and Offenhausen, Einstein's home, spatzle, bratwurst, the big chess board built into the ground in the park behind the cathedral, and near death experiences flying along the autobahn. Enjoyed the trip back into the past and the privilege of serving on the same spot of earth either with, before, or after all of you. jerryjarowitz@yahoo.com

I was a glorified supply clerk (SPC Liane Hackstedt)in Ulm 1/9 A & C Btry 1988-1990, not pershing trained! Anyone recall back then how many marks it cost to get out to Red Maxx from Wiley? 40DM? I fondly remember Red Maxx, Capo's, Ma's Place? (small bar located right over the Donau tucked away in the back), then she opened New York & The Liberty, yes even Oktoberfest? Does the mere name of Dracula bring your throat to a fire burning pain? Sounds like Wiley Barracks are long gone. Would love to make a trip out one of these days to Ulm. Yes, I can say on a clear day you can see the Swiss Alps from the Munster if you can withstand the hike up! I am so glad that I was a part of the Pershing experience or should I say history; even though it wasn't my chosen MOS. It is nice to see others share their fond memories, and what a great site. The cycles of 1/9: Cas, QRA, guarding the MSA, and off for 3 glorious months!!!!! Pershing's Finest..........

I am looking for information about units and or individuals who were stationed at Neu Ulm in 1957. Specifically, I am looking for a Dan Miller, who was stationed there during the summer of 1957. He would probably be in his middle to late 70's now. I am trying to help a lady locate her long lost father. I have a picture, and the patch on his should looks like that of a unit, but I am not sure. Please contact me at david.jensen@ramstein.af.mil, and make the subject line Neu Ulm so I will not think it is junk email and accidentally delete it. I really appreciate your assistance with this matter.

Wow, what a flashback to the past some of the posted messages evoke. I'm Ric Allen and was stationed in Neu-Ulm from May 71 until Mar 73 at Ulm AAF where I was crew-chief on UH-1s (tail numbers 18648 and 69972). As an aviation detachment assigned to the 1/81FA, we were really just a glorified taxi service for the brass going to and from Inneringen. Spent 30 days TDY in Swabisch Gmund while pilots trained for IFR because all the instruments in my bird actually worked. Saw nearly all of W. Germany from 3,000 fr agl. Even flew to Bremmerhaven on one occasion to retrieve S-2's wife's purse (she'd left it there when they shipped their Mercedes stateside - your American tax dollars hard at work). Other personnel at ULM AAF at the time included CW2 McMillan, CW2 Smith, CW3 Buekelman Cpt. Dixon (AFC), SP5s Rick Meeks, David Ascenzo, Jesse Kimball and Ron Meyer. Great memories of a terrific tour and fine fellows. I lived off-base with my wife in a little town called Thalfingen, but remember well the PX, commisary, infirmary, theater, EM club and "bloody bucket".

MCKEE WAS CLOSED FOR A SHORT PERIOD AND WAS CLASSIFIED BY THE PENTAGON AS " UNABLE TO SUPPORT " DUE TO RACIAL UNREST. ANYONE REMEMBER ??????? THE SHIT THAT WENT ON AT THAT BASE IS THE STUFF NOVELS ARE MADE OF. THE BASE LOCK-DOWN WENT ON FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS IT WAS SUREAL. ALL I REMEMBER WAS HENDRIX, THE PANTHERS, AND OTHER STRUNG OUT NAM VETS RECOUPING. REGULAR SUPPLY RUNS WERE MADE FROM A-DAM, TURKEY AND FRANKFURT. WHAT A TRIP.

Stationed at Wiley -1st of 81st- in the Security platoon . Flew in with the warheads from Wackernhiem 1968 and watched the tape get tangled in the tail rotor of the Mohave Chopper.(anyone else in Security in that time frame?) We had to jump out and form a perimeter around the mess. Spent the rest of 68 and 69 at Wiley. Bought a Taunus (Ford) from a returning GI and resold same to another GI when I rotated home 18 months later. Wonder if that old car still exists? Nah, it was on it's last legs even back then. Was a much better duty then the far east in that era. Esp. since I was drafted. 1968-1969 vance135@juno.com

stumbled on this site while surfin' around and glad i did! my nane is (believe it or not) tom sawyers and i was stationed with c co. 2/4 inf. at badnerhoff caserne in heilbronn in 85/86. i was at the missle base the day the explosion happened, shook the whole place and scared the hell out of us! (jan. 85, right?) happened across another site that showed pics of waldheid then and now, it also pays tribute to the soliers that died in the explosion! it has been torn down and naturalised (guess the ghost in tower 2 had to move on). i also work with a fellow named surrat that was attached to the battery at that time! anyone wanting to contact me my addy is sawyers_tom@hotmail.com. would love to hear from some old buds like sylvester moore, muders, frolike, polite, rivera, clevinger (junior), soria, and alex robles that i grad. basic with at benning and was stationed in nu ulm.

My name is Don Barker. I was in Commo Platoon (wire section)This is my second post. I found the site in June 03. I was in HHB 1/81 from Nov 75- Oct 78. To Steve Glenn and your post May 2004. I remember you along with Perez,Jennings, Santiago , Short, Holt,Bell, Wright and big Dan Crawford. Not to leave out 1ST Sgt James.I can still picture everones face today. I often wonder if Sgt. James ever stayed in Germany since he was married to a german girl.People in my section were Summers, Krona, and section chief was Ledbetter. I took leave in conjunction with ETS and left in late Oct instead of Early Dec.Needed to go home to Florida for awhile. Great times on the Kasern. Too many alerts though.My wife and I returned in 97 and most everything was in tact. Again in 2000 when my brother in law got stationed at Ramstein near Frankfurt. The barracks were then demolished. Would like to hear from anybody from our time frame in HHB. Ulm was a OK Town. Take Care All. brandywinelee@cfl.rr.c

To Thomas Snook, Hello. My name is John Lang. I was stationed with B 1/81 & 1/9 FA from 1-85 to 1-88. I'm trying to locate my Plt Sgt from those years. His name is SFC Teel, first name Joe. He was married to a German lady at the time, and had been in Germany for over 12 years when I pcs'ed in '88. He always told me he was gonna stay there. My email is Jlang8388@yahoo.com if you have any info on how I can get in touch with him. Or if any of your members remember me from there Pershings Years and want to chat. Thank's John

Also to the last post. about fire waters at Hades Club. Fermin Perez and I were roomates back at Wiley. Hell, we almost lived at Hades club. Thats where we had all our short timer parties for everyone. could you provide a little more info about yourself, I probably remember you too! mrloki@sbcglobal.net

Amazing site! I spent my childhood in Ulm (1977-1990, first in Vorfeld and later on "the economy") and it was really great to look at these pictures and remember. I especially like the comparison shots -- it's astonishing how much has changed. Thank you for putting together such a great site. -Patti Dunlavey

Considering how long Wiley Barracks and environs have been around, it comes to no surprise that there are so many entries. I was first there in the early 70's when my dad was stationed there. Then, almost 20 yeaaats later, I was stationed in Baumholder but was able to make a return visit. Since I lived in Ford Housing, I really fell in love with the area! Wonderful pictures! Thank you!

I am German and i lived in Ulm. My and friends 2. home was the 1/81. B- Battery. We had many friends there in the late 60's and early 70's and we met us the most times in the B -Battery Rooms. Then we have good music good drinks and good food down the Danube river or we had some drinks, music and Billard at the "Raben" Bar in Ulm. But the most of our american friends must leave Neu Ulm and so the contact breaks. Now i found via Google this site and old times came back - in brain. I only know now the first names of our friends, Paul - i think he had a girlfriend from Thalfingen,, Pete, Don, Huey and many more. So our names had been Klaus (KeyDee), Ernst, Akki - you remember? Remember our deals: Homemade Leberwurst vs Zigarettes? I live now in Switzerland and had a visit in Ulm -i've seen the Wileys - a piece of my life is gone forever - i've heard now russian people live there. If someone remember - please write in this guestbook - may bee we will have contact again. Greetings Klaus - KeyDee

Hello, Amazing site. My name is bill mcdaid and I was one of the original residents of ludendorff kaserne. I was with the 110th inf.reg.,28th div. which occupied the kaserne in 1951. I was an instructor with the 110th NCO Academy. The kaserne at that time housed the 3rd battalion and regimental headquarters. The 1st battalion was in hindenburg kaserne in ulm and the 2nd batalion was in boelki kaserne. I really enjoyed the old pictures and to see the mess hall as it existed at that time. Facing the mess hall to the right was the regimental headquarters bldg which also housed the NCO Academy. Some of the haunts in town at that time was the central,the insel bar,susies,stadt neurenburg. The old pictures were really awesom,thanks again for bringing back old and good memories.

Greetings from Guam. I was stationed with HHB 1/81 from July 74-Dec 75 and assigned to the Microwave section (31D MOS). I was reading the comments that were posted on the site and I was interested in the one posted by Mr. Don Parker. I don't think we've met since I was probably on my way out (ETS). I do remember some names you brought up like "jennings". I remember having a classmate at Ft. Sill name Jennings; also 1SGT James at the time I was there was my Platoon Sgt and he was then SFC. I dont know if you met any of the guys that I knew when I was there, such as PVT Putnam, Jackson, Rios, Valentine. I remember a female Sgt name SGT Jaeger and there were a couple of other females who worked in SSB, cant recall their names. My CO then was CPT Mutarelli. Also remembered a couple of squad leaders one we called "SGT Red" and the other was from Hawaii, SGT Troy Aweau. Public Affairs NCO was Nathan Chang. Most of the time I hung around with one guy from Delta Battery, not sure now, however his name was Ed Dumalao; and a couple of guys from the maintenance Battalion (Eddie and Tony Diaz). Anybody out there remembers me, Carlos Untalan from Guam, e-mail:cuntalan@mail.gov.gu

WOW! HSB-1/81 from 84-87. After checking the posts on here, i was surprised how many names i recognized. Back then, I was known as SP4 Swaney (c.j. swaney) I had the interesting job of being an 82C (F.A. Surveyor). Here is a (short) list of the usual suspects when i was at Wiley: K.Heilman/Leffler/Hutchenson/'marmelade'Johnson/ "bart"Bartholomew/Morris/ and for the 'non' surveyors...papa smurf!(from Mckeesport PA)Carvajal/Lasister, from Leesville LA/Jerry Merchant(Texas)/and my stint up at S-2 under Maj Brittonbach with Torres-Aponte'! and many more i am sure i will remember as soon as i log off..lol. As surveyors, we traveled under the umbrella of the 7th Eng. Not affilliated with them, just couldnt have that big ol missile on our uniforms and vehicles when we were putting in firing points on 'han's farm' absolutly feel free to contact me at cjrox@hotmail.com or visit my bands website at http://ft2online.tripod.com Great tymes that i will NEVER forget

I was in HQ Battery, 1/81st from 1970 through 1972 at Wiley Barracks. Haven't seen anyone mention the Bloody Bucket outside the main gate, or Rudy's a couple of clicks south - crawled home from both several times ..... Drove by there in '90, place sure looked different! Would like to hear from anyone I knew back then .... Greg Richardson, John Gandolfo, Terry Tamblyn, all of you guys ...

I am trying to locate someone that was stationed at the wiley barracks between the year of 1963-1966, his name may be john or jonny johns, or johnson.he would be around 62 years old today. One of his friends name was Parker.( South or north Carolina) If anyone was stationed in neu ulm at that time and knew a lady by the name of Vera Andziuk, please contact me at Ladyforever34@hotmail.com It is very important that I find this person, because i would be helping someone locate her father. She has been looking for him for over 30 years now, and does not expect anything in return only to know he is well and alive. Thank you :)

I was stationed at C btry, 1/81st,Wiley Kaserne,from early '71 (April?) til December '72. Anyone remember the Charlie Battery riot? They set the dumpster on fire and the German fire department came to put it out. The guys fought off the firemen with bottles, etc. Made the nightly news back home! Next day, the big Generals came down from the golden thrones up North to "talk to us" about all our problems with the Army. Saw the Bravo battery fire burn the place down a couple of days before I left. I'm the guy who went through the chow line at the Bn. Mess Hall and hung a pancake on the menu nail above the serving line. The head cook was so embarassed he came and asked me to go take it down and he would personally cook me another pancake. It was really good for a change! Hardly a week has gone by over the last 30 some years that I don't either mention or think about Germany, and Wiley Kaserne. Took a whole lot of photographs there, and many of them are still hanging on my walls today. Took a lot of pics with the lens cap still on too! Ha! Would love to hear from the guys who were there from 1971 thru 1972. Roark, Corder, Brookshire,Masters,Hatfield,you guys drop me a line. I was commo by MOS, but spent the whole time as Training clerk. Then the last three months,I was living and working at Wiley Chapel for the chaplin with another guy from 3rd Herd. That's right, I'm that skinney scrawny guy,Jerry Dawes!! Wish I was still skinny. Wish I still had my hair. Wish I could be back in Germany. Still have some great pictures of Wiley, Inneringen, and Green River in Utah. Still in touch with Chap.Graham from Wiley Chapel. Then,he was LTC. now he's Col.(Ret.)also, the S-2 back then, Capt.Baird, now MAJ.(Ret.)and my buddy from across the Kaserne, Jim Davies. Been a long time to keep in touch with these three. Jesus Saves !!

Was stationed at Wiley with C/1/81, 1st Plt, A-Section, as ACS, April 71 - Aug 72. Went through 15E40 school Jan - Feb 71. 34 years ago this month, I started my short career in Pershing P1a. I have found a few folks such as SFC Carl Jackson and my long lost friend R. Leonard. Still would like to make contact with some others like Michael Grove (Kansas) my EL Operator, Cameron my PTS Operator, and Helwig. How about some nicknames; Roadblock, Slow Motion, Sherman, Mr. Peabody, Rocky, Bullwinkle, to mention a few. I spoke with Brad Graul earlier today. He was there at Wiley in the 80's. He is now a Major. I can be reached at milantnson@msn.com. Richard M. Gilliland El Paso, Texas

Yes. Ken Brookshire does live in Ponca City, and I have visited him several times. Been a few years though since I last saw him. I don't get to Ponca City much. Right, he was in your battery, and I used to spend a lot of time over there myself.

LOOKING FOR THEN SSG BARRY WILLIAMS, WILEY BARRACKS, NEU ULM, WHILE I WAS THERE APRIL 1971 thru AUGUST 1972. HE AND HIS WIFE WERE THE PROXY-GODPARENTS OF OUR DAUGHTER LAURA. WE WERE STRAIGHT FROM THE STATES AND YOU MAY REMEMBER THAT WHEN WE GOT INTO QUARTERS, MY WIFE WAS TWO WEEKS DUE WITH OUR BABY. LAURA WAS BORN IN THE AUGSBURG ARMY GENERAL HOSPITAL, MAY 1971 AND WAS BAPTIZED IN THE WILEY CHAPEL. SSG Barry Williams was a Re-enlistment/Retention NCO I believe for the 1/81. We lived in the same family housing building, but in different stairwells. We both lived on the first floor. There was a guy that lived in his stairwell (with his wife) that did not eat all week but would eat anything and everything on the weekends. Barry had a Mercedes, light in color I believe. We drove through the New Ulm tunnel a couple of times with him blowing the car horn. He took me to the skeet range, where I shot skeet for the first time ever; 23 out 25 birds. We had a schauzer named Tiki. There was a nice young couple that lived above us; she was a cute little blonde and her husband liked to play my 12 string Framus guitar to serenade her. They were both petite in size. If there is anyone who knows this Barry Williams and how to contact him, would you let him know that I would like to re-establish contact with him. Or, let me know how I can contact him. I have reserved some things for verification if necessary. I can be contacted at: milantnson@msn.com Richard M. Gilliland, SGT E-5, C/1/81, Apr71-Aug72

Anybody remember the Bn. Artist from C 1/81 who painted all the murals around the battalion area like the mess hall, chapel, and many other areas like Ft. Blackjack mess hall? His name was Harry Collins, but most people knew him as "Flint". Flint spent almost his whole time in Charlie battery going around the Wiley area painting murals. His last mural was a the mess hall at Ft. Blackjack (Inneringen). I finally got to meet him the day he signed out to leave Germany. -Jerry Dawes

I was stationed with The 2nd ARB/51st In/4thAD,Ford Barracks, from July 62 to April 64. Our housing area was at Wiley Kasserne. Would be interested in hearing from anyone who was stationed there during that time. In particular would like to hear from SSG Wayne Jones, motor sargent, Bruce Wilson or my old Company Commander Richard A Robinson. My email is tlmccullough@comcast.net. I still have contact with some of the "old folks"/ One of the earlier comments listed Col. W.W. West III as the Battalion Commander. He was Commander of Combat Command A. LTC Jackson was commander of the 2nd of the 51st (Fixed Bayonnets) at the time Kennedy was assasinated. He was followed by LTC Kane. Does anyone know what happened to Billy Moore after he left in April 62 to join the 10thSF?

I, Sgt Jim Davies, was at Wiley Dec 23, 1971 to Jan, 1973. Originally assigned to BN FDC in the Field Artillery Unit, later LTC Larry Graham convinced the BN Commmander, his neighbor, I should be transfered to work in the Chapel. FA people I rememebr without too much 'mememory searching' are Capt Cook, SSgt Prince, Loren Kerr, Garberlich, Barry Newtson, Lanny Litrell - great people in my section that I think of occassionally - Remember teh river boat rafting trip we did guys down the Danube reiver before Graf one year? I rememeber and a few more faces that I don't recall names at the moment. I'm going ot have to dig out my book with all that info about the guys in the section. For a period of time, I was section chief for the BN FDC center. At the chapel, we ran a great program including the Friday NIght think at "His Place". It was a great 13 months I spent there. I still am in contact with Chaplain Graham and Jerry Dawes of the Pershing unit. I was Sgt in Neu Ulm, after discharge, went back in in the Reserves in Springfield, MO, in 1977, promoted to SSG, later qualified for SFC. Left the Reserves 1982 when I moved. Have been living in the Atlanta, GA area for 22 years now. Jim@EagleWebWorx.com

My husband, Fredric Pendergraft, gyroed over with the first incrment of the 8 Div. to Ford Barracks in 1957. We lived at Ford Housing at 392 B2. We sure enjoyed being in Baveria, it was just beautiful and still is. Our daughter was born at the 11th Field Airborn hospital in Augsburg. When we were in Permasins (Fishbach) We had the opportunity to take her back to Ulm to see where we lived at the time of her birth and to see the city. I have many pictures from there to remember our good times. Fred retired in 1973 on Guam (515th Ord)) and has since passed away. Shirley Pendergraft

This site is GREAT!! My name is Hugh Magee. I was with Service Battery Engineers from 2/72 to 5/73. Yes, I remember the riot at C Battery - kept chantin for the "Hawk" - BC finally showed up - one of the guys hit him over the head with a bunk adapter - he did 5 years in Leavenworth, I think. I remember B Battery barracks burning. Slept thru it, though. Ulm was a great place. I was there 6 months and they sent me on R&R to Garmisch. Had a blast! Got taspped to go back to Green River and fire some rounds. That was a real trip. Going downtown on the bus to town and going to either Ray/s Tavern or the Silver Dollar Saloon - across the street from each other, on the only stree in town. Living in tent city - even had a sandstorm to liven things up. Yes, they tried all rounds the first night and got 2 off - did the other 2 the second night - I was there on the rocks watching. Remember the 8 hour layover in Dover? hanging out at the Service Club and Bowling Alley.Landed at Michael AFB in Utah - left us on an asphalt strip and took off - no one around! took 45 minutes for a bus to come and get us. Had a fireworks fight with D barracks christmas '72. Started out as an accident, but turned out to be fun!. Living in the engineer bunker at Fort Black Jack - blast load 14,000 KG. Loved the Gold Ochsen Bier and the cheeseburgers - made by Ahmed the Turk (won cheesgoorg!) Black Jack One Alpha.....club closed, report to your posts! Wound up in Project Transition - bus driver - been at it for over 30 years now! Miss the old place - post a few pics now. Anyone recognize any one, or remember me, let me know.............hugmag@aol.com

Hello Hugh Magee, read your comments,I've been in correspondence frequently with Richard Gilliland. We were both in C1/81FA and were at the riot. I find that he knew more about the riot than I did, or maybe just a better memory. A few days after the riot, I got a letter from home asking me what was going on. My parents had seen a report about the riot on the national news. I remember most of the places you mentioned. Especially the tent city at Green River. One night during my stay at tent city, my buddy had gone to the movies on the bus. He was always worried about snakes there in the desert. While he was gone, I went over to the laundry area, and got a rubber hose off one of the washers. I placed the hose in his sleeping bag, and waited for him to crawl into bed that night. After he finally began speaking to me again, we had some really great laughs about how he tore up his sleeping bag that night. jwdawes@fullnet.net

Hello Mr. Dawes - Sure was a wild time back then - do you remember the skyrocket war we started around christmas 72 with D barracks? we shot rockets back and forth across the parade ground for about a week!. I also remember standing in Bn formation to practice for a Bn Cmdr change, when suddenly you heard Jimi Hendrix playing the Star Spangled Banner from a barracks window - boy did those officers run to stop that!! Convoys in the fog to some place in the woods for a few days for a field exercise (let's go - 2 hours to clear the gate) Started me looking at the old pics - me with Gus and his wife and the waitress from the Bloody Bucket. Green River - 2 bars in town - the Silver Dollar Saloon and Ray's Tavern - across the street from each other. We caught a horned toad there and kept it for a pet for the 2 weeks. Spending a night in Salt Lake City. Stevie went back and married that girl!! had to wait till he was 21!!! I was in Bn Maintenance - Engineers - fixed Power Stations (WHAT???) 52D20 MOS Too many memoreis - Garmisch, Zugspitze, Partnach Gorge, Ettal Monastery, Neuschwanstein Castle. I also drove a bus for the Service Club on the weekends.

Hey I was just browsing and by chance got into this site. I will like to say hello to those that served in the military but especially those that shared the same period with me. I was 18 years old when I went to Germany and I would say that those days were sweet and sour times while growing up and dealing with the military life, other people, other cultures etc. It helped my formation in so many ways. I thank God for all the great moments, and for the not so great ones as well because they lead the way to experience and self-realization. My Name is Robert Berberena (Sp4), most of the friends from that period used to call me Robby. I was part of the 579th Ordnance Co. from October 6th, 1974 to March 23rd, 1976. My best friends were Johnny Santiago (Puerto Rico), Jerry Jarowitz (Kansas City), Mike Miera (Arizona), James Mutchie (Indiana) Lenny Owens (Philly), Angel Rosario (NY/PR), Robert McCyntire (New York). There were many great friends but I have forgotten their names or the full name, I remember a short guy from New York, Harris, a guy from Montana Natale?. Also, I still remember the names of Suarez, Salgado, Oscar Cruz and two ladies that were part of the WACs, Nancy and Provinchi, and the catcher of our soft ball team Joe Kreneck. I took some classes at Wiley’s high school and they had very good teachers: Laura Zielinsky and Pat Pelham? The officer in charge was Major Lamont(?) and my immediate supervisors were Sgt. Teeny and Mr. Rice. Well, allow me to wish you the very best, please take care. God Bless you all!!! If you wish to email-me my adress is: r_berberena@hotmail.com

Still looking for SSG Barry Williams, 1st Bn 81st Arty, Wiley Barracks - Neu Ulm, Apr 1971 - Aug 1972, when I was there. If I recall correctly, Barry was a Retention/Re-enlistment NCO. Barry and his wife were the stand-in Godparents for our daughter Laura. Laura was born May 2, 1971, in the Augsburg Army General Hospital. If there is anyone out there who knows Barry or knows where he is at, let him know that I am trying to contact him. Or, let me know and I will contact him. Thanks. Richard M. Gilliland (then SGT E-5), C/1/81, Apr 1971-Aug 1972, Wiley Barracks-Neu Ulm

Great web site. Lived in Neu Ulm from Jan 62 to Aug 65. My Dad was First Sergeant Haynes G. Schuler with 51st Inf Battalion and my Mother Marjorie Schuler. We lived in Vorfeld housing area and went to school over on Nelson Barracks. Had good friends in the Tom Hathaway and Walter Davis Families. Dad liked to frequent the NCO club in the bottom floor of the AMEX bank building, much to Mother's dislike but I think she grew to accept it. I can still close my eyes and hear the sound of the tracks on the street next to the housing area when Dad and the others were called out on alert. Sometimes he came home that afternoon, sometimes it was a month or so before we saw him again. Different Army back then, the youngsters today couldn't cope with that without at least twenty times the base pay , chaplain support, crying towels, and other myriads of support groups. Spent many a good time back then as a dependent and later went on to give the Army twenty two proud years of service of my own. Thanks for the web site, Steven F. Schuler.

This is to John in the 1/9 FA. The Recovery vehicle was a MAN M-1002. It was delivered by MAN to Fort Sill in 1987. The last I know it was in service was in 1989 which is the crane verification date. It has very faint markings on front left cab HHB. Painted over top of that is a picture of a Razorback hog. It has 224 MT and DS-92 on front and back. I think now it served with two separate units.

For those of you who served at Wiley Kaserne around 72-to later years. 1/81 FA mess hall cook assigned to C 1/81 FA. His name was Jim Woodrum. Jim was also a professional steel guitar player for several well known country singers. I finally made contact with his family after 32years. Jim was killed in 1999 in a traffic accident. Some of you may remember Jim at the Battalion Mess Hall, because he was the only one there that knew how to cook, and he was also the only one who ever smiled. He had a great sense of humor and loved to clown around. I've missed Jim for 32 years now, and will really miss him now that I have learned of his death. Our loss is heaven's gain. Jerry Dawes C1/81fa Wiley Kaserner '71-'72.

Hello SFC soon to be retired Jim Stebbins here. I was with C 1/81 and then C 1/9 motorpool from 86 till 91 when we shut her down. I am stationed in Bamberg Germany and have visited Neu Ulm several times. The old memories come back so easy even if Wiley has changed. Just riding around brought back the good times. The bars, gaustehauses, the beer, fests, QARs and all the other fun stuff. The old CAS site has been turned into a automobile company/rental car storage area. Most of the buildings are gone but the palce still looks the same with a little imganation. I spent the best years of my military career in Neu Ulm.

Greetings from El Paso, Texas. My name is Ismael Esteban Martinez. I served with Bravo Battery, 2/5 FA at Fort Riley from April 1985 - June 1986 and in Neu Ulm from June 1986 - October 1987. My best friends where Elbert Wilder and George Black from Bravo Battery and Willie Kline and Jaime Basauri from Service Battery. I visited Elbert Wilder at his home in Virginia Beach in May of 2004. After I left the Army I attended the University of Texas and earned a degree in mechanical engineering and now work at White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico, about a 40 mile drive from my home in El Paso. Yes, I still work for the Army, but now as a civilian professional. The one place I remember the most in Neu Ulm was the Zoo. I can still remember my dismay when it was closed down. For weeks and months there where rumors that it would open back up, and I remember going back time and time again to check, but of course it never did. Without a doubt, some of the best days of my life were spent with B 2/5, especially in Neu Ulm. If anyone remembers me, drop me a line. (Andrea Laznik, if you see this please email me.) "Artillery, artillery . . . artillery is the life for me . . ." Regards, Esteban Martinez ismael.esteban.martinez@wsmr.army.mil

Damn the friends I had over there. Chris Burgess, Bob Patterson, Robert Mendoza, and Ron Rockwell & Roland. Guys we had a great time and I miss yall.Anyone remember this... A guy got murdered on top of the vinyard hill.He got hung on a huge cross. It was over a stolen pistol from the Arms room and sold it to buy Hash... It was a group of guys that was in on it. One got scared from the CID questioning him and the other three killed him. One of the guilty was my roommate. Steve Adams. He was the least invovled as the trial went. I think he got sucked up in something he didn't know how to get out of.... I was a motor pool dawg.... But many friends that was missile crewmen. I did the Nijmegan ( spelling )( Neatherlands in 1988 with Charlie battery. Well what was left over there. The rest went to the states and fired a P II .

Hello, My name is Don Cavey. I was stationed at Wiley from December 1969 to December 1970. I arrived as a SP4 and was promoted on the day that I had to pull KP. Well, the mess sergeant made me complete the tour! Go figure. I am still in contact with Ron Johnson of Abbeyville, KS and Maurice Norwood of Baltimore, MD. I was in Service Battery. My MOS was 21H20/21L20. However I did more driving in Germany than fixing of the guidance section. I took radios and tools for calibration all over Western Germany. Does anyone know where George Erath is? Or Sgt. Tarwater, or Capt. Terrell? They were great guys and we have all lost touch. I have some picture from 1970 and if the webmaster is interestec, I will scan them so that they can be added to the site. While I have made many trips to europe, I have not been to Germany since I left on New Year's eve, 1970-1971. One day... Please, please contact me if you like, I would love to hear from you. kvflyer@comcast.net Vielen Danke!

I'm beginning to think that all the fellas from C Battery 1-81 FA from 1983 to 1986 have died off. Perhaps one day we can start an "alumnus" chapter for the school of "Pershihg". Early to mid eighties, Those were great times...the clubs, the women, the lifestyle. Great! Also, does anybody from that time frame remember a tall german guy who hung out with the brothers who called himself "Chill Will with the Dollar Bill"? What ever happened to that guy?

As you come through the Gate at Nelson, the M P 'S were stationed in the bottom of the building and checked everybody out coming and going. That same building was also home to Company B 2nd BN 4th Infantry division. We had four platoons. We were grunts, straight leg infantry. I was in 3rd platoon, platoon sergeant was ssg Ammons. Platoon leader was 1st Lt. Farrar. We went to Inneringen several times to provide support for the 56th Field Artillery Brigade. Remember the Red hats and the purple hats who dropped in for inspections at the cas site? We also went to the field majorly, as we were grunts and also to Graffenwoehr and Hohenfels for annual military exercises with West German, British and other NATO armed forces. Sometimes there were 5,ooo troops and loads of tanks and other armored artillery. I don't even remember how to get to where the Acropolis was in Ulm. Or the Cafe Lieritz, that had the best food I ever ate.That was 32 years ago. I met a lot of guys with the 56th Field artillery, but I am embarassed to admit I can't remember names. Faces yes, names ............nah. Still I maintain that was two of the best years of my life. And I think this site is top notch. Dan Jefferson dej51inmo@sbcglobal.net

Stationed at Wharton Barracks 1958 til 1959. 'D' Co., 1st ARB, 54th Infantry, Company CO. Capt. Harland E. Carney, 1st Sgt William Cote and the Battalion CO was Lt. Col Sidney B. Berry. Born and raised in Geislingen/ Stg. Germany some 60 miles south of Heilbronn, came to the US March '57, joined the Army June '57, Fort Hood, Texas and the rest is history. One interesting point, Wharton Barracks before the Americans took over was called Schlieffen Kaserne and its so happened, my father, Oberfeldwebel Fritz Klein was stationed there in 1934.

I stumbled upon this site by accident. I was a medic with HSB 1/81 from 1/82 thru 1/84. I was privileged to have served under a very fine NCO, and first class human being, by the name of Thomas Snook (SSG at the time). I noticed that he was a contributor, and apparently is still living in Neu Ulm. All in all, I can't say that I would want to do it over, but there were some extremely excellent people that I will never forget and will always thank God for the day I met them. 1/81 FA (Pershing) was the "Beautiful Downtown" place to be.

I was stationed at C Battery 1/81 FA, from October 1972 until January 1974. I worked in the Motor Pool, PLL Clerk, for the first 6 months, and then I ran the Day Room for my last 6 months and probably played a zillion games of foos ball while in charge of the Day Room. Incredible memories from my time in Neu Ulm, and quite amazing how well the Army functioned while most were either stoned, drunk or both. I can remember my first day, and processing in at various places throughout the base, and could hear clear as a bell the Rolling Stones, "Give me Shelter", and how most of the window drapes in Charlie Battery were tye dyed sheets of bright purples and orange colored sheets that were stolen, errr borrowed, from the supply room. My first night, being the new guy "neufer" and shot gunning pipes of the finest hashish the country of Turkey had to offer, while a stereo blasted at the highest possible volume of Led Zepplin, while a communal bottle of water was passed around to cool our smoked fill throats. It truly amazed me how we could all get stoned before formation in the morning, back at lunch to get a "head" again, and back to the "room" for an all nighter, after dinner, every night of the week. It truly amazed me how well we all functioned at Innerigned when the "hats" would make a surprise visit, and how we would pass their inspections stoned, or in some cases out of our minds on LSD; how did we do that?

Still looking for then SSG Barry Williams. He worked in the Bn HQ's 1/81 as the Bn Re-enlistment/Retention NCO. He and his wife were the stand-in Godparents at my daughter's baptism in the Wiley Chapel. I was then SGT Richard (Gil) Gilliland, C/1/81, April 1971-August 1972. My wife was (and still is my wife) Dora. When we got to Wiley, my wife was about two weeks due with our second child and second daughter, Laura. It's a long story why my wife traveled to Germany being two weeks due. Barry and his wife and their one daughter (at the time) lived in the opposite stairwell from us. We both lived on the first floor. If anyone out there that reads this message knows where and how Barry can be contacted, let me know. The last that I know, was that he was in Lawton, Oklahoma for a while. He may still be there. Thanks in advance for any help. I can be contacted at: milantnson@msn.com Pershing Sir!! QRA!!

I was stationed at Wiley in B 1/81- 1/9 from 84 to 88. The cold war had turned very hot and with our Pershing unit's getting the new P2's in, it got just that much hotter in the Neu-Ulm area. I salute all of you, regardless of which unit you served in, and say to you all, Hello and Hi! and that it was a priviledge to serve with you, and when I see ya again, I hope to see ya along the Donnau with a cup of bitter in hand!

Enjoyed going through the guestbook. Didn't recognize many of the names, but sure enjoyed thinking about the old days on and off post. My name is Nick Jones and I was stationed at B Btry and HHB, 1/81 from Jan 75-Dec77, mostly as B Btry clerk. I especially enjoyed looking at the pics of Wiley Barracks from around that time. If anybody remembers me from those days, drop me an email at bjones@eufaula.rr.com. I'd love to hear from you. Nick Jones

At Wiley Barracks,1971-1972, some of the gate guards for the back gate near the housing area were from service battery 1/81fa. I've been trying to recall the name of one guard that I became friends with. His girlfriend's mother worked at the PX checking ID cards. He was slim build with redish-brown hair. And usually always worked at night, although I don't think there was bearing on his work schedule. I usually saw him at night even though he probably was scheduled for other hours as well. If anyone from that time can recall the guard's name, I would appreciate your help. contact me at jwdawes@affinity4.net .

I was stationed in Neu Ulm as a member of the Headquarters Detachment Ulm- Sub Post from February 62 to July 64. I worked as a supply specialist for the elementary and junior high schools in Neu Ulm. I was housed in Nelson Barracks. I also did a brief stint as a housing inspector for dependent housing (checking people in and out). At times, on weekends, I drove a bus for Special Services on various outings. This is a great web site. It brings back many memories of my tour of duty in Germany. Names of associates and friends come to mind such as Bennett, Hein, McCallum,Gonella, Couser, Brown, Zink, Martindale, Webb and many others. My name is Per Hjulstad and I am at per@glacierpeaks.net Send me an e-mail if your remember me or served in my unit during the time mentioned. 170/588

Great memories. I was in Neu Ulm from 72-76 with the Regional Personnel Center. On Wiley for a while then our offices moved over to Nelson. We had the privilege of servicing all the Army units there at the time (1/81 FA; 2/33 FA; 2/4 Inf; 579th Ord, etc.). I received a Pershing Professional Badge from the PSNCO of the 1/81 in 1973 but I can’t remember his name. I was an “orders clerk” for a long time and probably typed most of your PCS or ETS orders to get you back to the “world”. Names for the RPAC I remember are: 1SG Schlaf; SFC Voss; SSG Troxell; SGM King; Jim Halfpenny; Jim Dougan, Dale Monroe, Steve McDowell, Jim 4B Philips, Steve Fornal, Mouse, Pickles, John Nyberg, SSG Winston Baker, CW4 Wayne Young, MSG Bill Pitman, SSG Z, Larry Johnson, Gil Johnson, Jim Weslowski, “Douch” Draper (1/81). If you remember Reed Elliott, email me at reedandchris@zianet.com.

Hello Reed, can't say that as I remember you, but you mentioned several names that I had not heard for many years but are still familiar to me. The Trowell's lived in the same quarters stairwell that my wife and I lived in. SSG Troxell and his wife, Irina, were here in El Paso, Texas, back in the early part of the 80's. Ran into them a couple of times but never got together with them. Dale Monroe (if he is the one that I knew) was in C/1/81 the same time that I was there (April 71-August 72). I was a SGT E-5 ACS in the C/1/81 1st Platoon. He was a SGT E-5 in 1st Platoon, the same platoon that I was in. I can't recall if he was an ACS, though. I heard just a few years ago, that he supposedly moved to El Paso. I have looked for him locally, but have not been able to locate him. Perhaps you may remember a SSG Barry Williams? He was the 1/81 Re-enlistment/Retention NCO for the BN. He was driving a big (tan colored?) 4-door Mercedes at the time. Myself and another guy are looking for Barry. Barry and his wife were the stand-in Godparents for our second child who was born in Augsburg Army General Hospital in May 1971. If you have any information on where and how we can contact Barry, would you share it with me? Thanks and good luck, Richard Gilliland. I can be contacted at ..milantnson@msn.com.
