Alpha Co 1/54 Inf (Mech) 83-84
Yes, the best time of my life(so far) was spending 18 months in Bamberg. Remebering running to the dome after a night at The Zwiebel. Eating the wursts from the wagons and of course Graf, Hoens, and Wildchicken training areas. Got to travel Spain, France, Italy, Greece, GB, and all of this beautiful country. Will visit next year and can't wait to have an EKU Hefeweizen......Tchuss exactly "ALPHA GATORS ABOVE THE REST"

been there
I was in Bamburg in1982 to 1985. What a great place to live!! If I ever got the chance to go back I would!! My husband was stationed with the 82nd airborn and was supply sarg. for 3 years while we were there. You must visit Appendorlf[ right outside of Bamburg] if you get the chance. The people were nice and were willing to help a mother of two who was new to the country with the langure barrier and all the new ways !!! Love the place and would go back if given the chance!!!

Research!
I am an eighth grader at a charter school in Philadelphia. I recently completed a 5 page research paper about Auscwitz. Before researching, I was never aware of the horror of Auschwitz. I just wanted to leave this comment to say to let everyone know that I am too educated about Auswitz!

barracks?
My son is about to go to Bamberg with the 173rd. I have seen some pictures online and found this site - can anyone tell me about the accommodations for a PFC with the 173rd Airborne? Barracks, I assume, but the Army advertises 4-man apartment-style living now (March 2009) so perhaps????

I will never forget what happened.
You are very brave and strong to have been able to come through that. We will NEVER forget waht the Nazis did, and we will NEVER forget the victims who died. May they rest in peace.

Home sick
I found these pictures when I was helping my 10 yr old daughter who was born in Wuerzburg work on her Christmas traditions project for school. I lived there 7 years (1995-2002) and would have liked to stay there forever. We were in Wuerzburg last Christmas (Dec 2007) and will be there again this summer. Thank you so much for posting these photos. They bring back such happy memories.

Beautiful pictures
I grew up in Schweinfurt but was lucky enough to live in Bamberg for a year, to this day it is still my favorite city. I have been living in S.D. and Minnesota for the past 17 years. Your photo brought back some very fond memories. My last visit to Germany to visit my family in Schweinfurt was in 2000 and I made it a point to take the train to Bamberg for a day.

This is very touching and moving, may all those murdered here and in every other camp lay in peace, for we shall never forget this tragedy, how selfish they were. Curse the Germans who commited such crimes of hatrid.

HWB 2/2 ACR
I too was stationed in Bamberg Germany with Howitzer Battery 2/2 ACR from 1985 to 1987. I remember SGT Manville who posted January 26th, 2009. Bamberg was an absolute beautiful area to be stationed at. I remember the Hills of Bamberg, the river in Bamberg, the many bridges, the stone cobbled streets and walkways, just a life and ambience of the city of itself that no one in America can even imagine. Best times had in Bamberg was when Sgt Chin (Chinchitlertt) bought his BMW and we'd go explore every corner of Bamberg. To Manville, I was MSGT Reids Driver and then 1st Sgt Yarboroughs driver when he came along. If you remember me too, Nice to say HI!
