3rd ID Change of Command in Germany circa 1991-ish? It was the first, longest, and most painful. Always start with the hardest....that way it can only get easier!

I remember it well! My first Pass in Review was at Fort Campbell during Week of the Eagles in 2012. It was the 101st's 70th anniversary. CIA Director (and retired General) David Petraeus gave a very moving, inspirational speech that was timely motivation for our deployment a week later. I've been in two reviews since then, and they paled in comparison.

Yes very much.My first pass in review was at Ft. Campbell,Ky it was activation day for the 101st Abn Div in Aug 1956. Gen Maxwell Taylor brought the 101st Abn Div Colors from Washinton,DC and presented the 101st Abn Div Colors to Gen Sherbourne. On that particular day, the 101st Abn Div was brought back from deactivated to an active Abn Div. The Div was part of 18th Abn Corps and one of the first Pentomic Abn Div . Nearly all of my active service was with the 101st Abn Div and I retired at Ft. Campbell,Ky in Oct 1977.
