- Impressionen von der ehemaligen Nike Hercules-Flugabwehr Basis der 3/71 ADA in Dallau. Die Flugabwehrstellung ist in Privatbesitz von Rolf Ludwig der nun dort eine Pferdezucht betreibt. Mit Einverständnis des Besitzers drehte ich diesen Video für die ehemaligen MP Soldaten dieser Einheit.
Impressions of the former Nike Hercules Air Defense Area. This Area is now in private hands of Rolf Ludwig and so I made this Video with the agreement of the owner for my friends and former MP Soldiers.
I was born there and lived just 500 Meters away from you... Had some friends, but they had to leave after a couple of years. Still miss you "James Woodward" and "Andrew Reiter".
Also remember everything from this time.
Today we had a short walk around this area (visit my parents) and talked about this time. Still some houses and the tower there...
Greetings from Dallau!!!
I was stationed
here 1964-66 then Bat D 1st/67th. Spit polished, well cared for. HIGH Security,
fences with concertina wire then patrolled by armed guards with dogs.You pulled
your guard duty with a round chambered in your M14. Falling asleep on guard
duty could get you a court marshal. Training and readiness drills were extreme.
Beautiful German girls still wanted to marry a GI. 1 dollar got you 3 marks
50p, The Henshen House was the social center. It brings back fond memories D

Hello BlazingskiesRed thanks for the compliments.I made this video because I am in contact too almost 60 Ex-MP Soldiers from this Nike hill. Which period you was at the hill? The most of my friends were from 1976-1983.Maybe you remember Bob Brown, Barry Trombley, Nate Bridges, Hank Laroche, Darrell Beasley, Georg Lew, Rick Stringfella, Randy Harnack, Jerry Mims..If you like more info write again. Maybe you can go in contact to the membership. My name is Kai I am a German
My Dad was stationed here (Floyd E. Chatterton "Chat") He retried in 1967 when I was 1. He stayed in Germany and I was raised around the corner in Mosbach/Lohrbach and then Heilbronn. We used to go back to Dallau for Thanksgiving and such. I remember they used to bring ponies in for us kids to ride near the little pond where I caught my first Rainbow Trout! I wish I had pictures.....
I remember PX Joe well! We lived in Dallau and my now, ex husband worked on launcher hill. We were stationed there for two years from 77-79. Our names were Richard and Anna Grayson. Really enjoyed being there and shopping on the economy. Good people in that part of the world.
PX Joe was still there in 79' ? Amazeing !
I was there. I remember you and Richard! 76-79
Great videos on A/3/71. I was there 1976-78! It is amazing so much of launcher hill is intact!
I was a LOPAR radar repairman on radar hill from l967 to 1970. Made E5 and moved to Rittersbach, Cafe Bruck, where I had a room downstairs. Back then the currency rate was 4 marks to a dollar and a Halbe bier cost 50 pfennig. I remember the dances we had twice a week there but most of my time I spent in Mosbach at the Henschen Haus and the Kinder Spielplatz at night with the local girls. Fun times! When I first got there I met 1st Shirt Charlie Brown who hated everybody and Capt. Davis. I worked for Mr. Fish and SFC. Morales. Can't believe that was 50 years ago!
Hi Dave! Take a look at Facebook and look for the groups: A Btry 3rd Bn 71st ADA Dallau Germany or Alpha battery 3/71 st ada. If you want to join there, there are a lot of your former friends. Greetings Kai
Danke, Kai für das Video.
Es brachte viele Erinnerungen zurück!
I was just looking at history on the Internet, Googling places I had been. I was the Military Policeman that arrived at the closed and shuttered Dallau site on a Sunday in 1985 (I think) to find about 200 peaceful protesters.
I was assigned to the 194th MP Company at the time. We had a requirement to check the site once per shift. When I was on mid-shift, it was the highlight of the evening. I could get there and back in about 50 minutes. Of course I would break most traffic laws.
Beautiful. I was stationed there in 1976. So happy to see this nuclear armed site reverting to nature.
Hi Eric! Take a look at Facebook and look for the groups: A Btry 3rd Bn 71st ADA Dallau Germany or Alpha battery 3/71 st ada. If you want to join there, there are a lot of your former friends. Greetings Kai
I was stationed in Dallau, Delta Btry, 1st Bn, 67th Arty from 1966-1968-I was a launcher crewman and section chief of the section just inside the guarded missile burms. J. Hall

Kai, that is an awesome look at our old site. We're all "over the hill" now, but what a fascinating tribute for all of us! Where are you living now? Ironically I met a guy through the company I used to work for, who lived just down the hill and remembered growing up with the bright lights shining in his bedroom window all night from our site, I also rekindled a friendship with a girl from Dallau who I dated back in the day. Would love to connect with you and share some memories. Thanks.
Was 67th Artillery Nike Ajax in 59 60 when I was there
Anyone remember PX Joe and Carol, who taught German Headstart? Wo was stationed there around that time?
Yes I do! Was there in 1977. PX Joe was such a great guy!
I recall PX Joe from my stint on launcher hill (A&S), 1970-71.
Sergeants Bob Brown and Kurt Illig were two of my favorite people there. If you have any way to get in touch with either, please let me know.
