I was assigned to Charlie Battery, 1/67 in late 1966 as the XO under Captain Blackwell. Great unit (best in 32nd AADCOM in 1967). So many memories, so little time. Lt. Tom Gaffey and I lived in an apartment above the Volksbank in Hardheim for a year (got evicted), and then move dto the Landgasthof zum Ross in Schweinberg where we were "adopted" by the Kuenzig family (poppa loved Jack Daniels Black from the PX in Wertheim). I have fond memories of Charlie, but also fond memories of the "Tanzcafe Romantica" in Walduern, and their "famous" band - The Jetwalkers!. How we escaped non-judicial punishment, I'll never know!
I would love to hear from the men who were there at the time! I already fond Joe Ardito on this site.

I was stationed at Hardheim Kasserne from August 1963 to early April 1965. I was a 179.10 mos radar opeerator working the IFC. I had fond memories of my time there. I was transferred in after out missile site was taken over by the National Guard. I worked all the positions in the trailer. I remember we had a lot of fun downstairs in the beer hall below the barracks.
Or we spent time in town at the gasthauses. At the time it was 4 Marks to the dollar so we could get by cheaply.Just seeing if there was anyone else out there that served then and please send me an email if you want to jog our memories.

I was at C-3-71 from Jan 64 to Jan 67. I worked in the launcher area and in the EM club. I met my wife Helga in Brackenheim and we were married Sept 66. We have two sons and 6 grandchildren.I retired from the army after 22 years in Sept 1979.I Retired at Ft Bliss I was the First Sgt at A-4-1 basic training, the first battery to have OSUT. After retiring I went to the local community college and got a degree in HVAC. I retired from Honeywell after 20 years in 2003 then went back to work for Honeywell one day later as a contractor and worked for another 9 years. My last assignment in Germany was C-2-1. I had the honor of being the launcher platoon sgt. We had a unit with some of the best NCO's and officers I ever served with. In 1977 the unit fired out at Crete with a 99% the highest ever fired at Crete at that time in the 94th group, we kicked * * *.
We now live in Colorado Springs , Co. We spend time between our mountain home and our home in the springs. We built a log home in 1987 near Cripple Creek, Co to enjoy the mountains and the view it is beautiful country. Helga and I keep busy with different activities, her working with animal rescue and I keep some what busy playing softball with in the local senior league.
I wish I had made the reunion here in the Springs it would have been fun.

Tower Rat 1976-1977. Witness to the accidental arming of a warhead and it's extration by helicopter. A night time security breach where keys and an M-16 were stolen by one of the soldiers and the all hell breaks loose aftermath.
