A great assignment. Although I traveled a lot, my wife and I made the most of our time there (visited the USSR and East Berlin before the wall fell, etc.). We also completed some college work there. Note, however, I was there in the mid- '80's during the cold war right after the USAFE HQ building was blown up by the Red Brigade so my experience was "old school".

I was just down the block at Zweibrucken AB. Loved my 3 years there in the late 80s. My wife and family hated to leave.

LOVED my time there...unfortunately, I was kept so busy that my wife and daughter saw more of the area then I did....but I DID enjoy it LOTS and LOTS when I had some time off. Lots to do within a couple hours drive!! Basket Factory, Tongren Belgium (flea market every Sunday except Easter), and so much more....

Now that was a gorgeous base. The 4th of July festivals were always a great time.
