    I was feeling nostalgic and I came this posting. We were stationed in Wiesbaden from 88-92 when I was in elementary school, and looking back, it was the happiest time if my life. Despite being stuck in the Amelia for what felt like ten years, and only having AFN and whatever videos friends sent us from the states, it made for a wonderful childhood, and most definitely shaped who I am today.

      @@franksteele3296 You went to WAMS? I went to Hainerberg while we were in the Amelia, then to Aukamm the rest of the time. We were there at the same time, so I know you remember Mr. Lenz and that hellhound dachshund East that used to chase us to make us run faster. Ah, the memories. 😁😁

    Oh the memories... Had a nice butterfly knife destroyed or they tried to destroy it. Forgot I had it walking thru the gate, was told I could be fined or have it destroyed. You can guess what I chose. They stuck it between a file cabinet draw and tried to break it. It ended up braking the file cabinet.

      Thanks Brian, you forgot me? I also have a video of Joe Montano, and Bret and myself driving to Luxembourg in 1990. Have a video of Jack Richards and myself driving to the Commissary in Frankfurt, but that one would need a lot of editing. Don't think I got a video of my favorite bar. I taught Bret that you should just walk around wherever you are and crash a bar until you find one you like.

    Hi guys! Anyone to remember Joe Rogers? He gave art-lessons to the army-members, I think in Erbenheim it was. I lived with him and 12 others in that long gone house you find on my channel, vid #7. Joe also passed away many years ago but I keep a compass for drawing circles he once presented to me, an american style compass which nobody else in Germany has ;-) Thank you Joe for the vid!

    I lived near Lindsey Air Station from 1966 to 1967 as an Air Force brat. I could walk from our house on Nasserstrause ( sp) and be at Lindsey in about 20 to 25 minutes. I was always going there just for something to do. Great memories.

    Hey. Nice Video. I drive a part of this way every Day. :-) The schiersteiner street has a few New houses today. The other places like 1. Ring looks like 1990. Ok... we have other cars today ;-) The Post Center AT 2:50 in the Background has gone... there is a shopping mall next to the Central Station now. Greetings from wiesbaden ;-)

      Graf Zahl. I lived near Lindsey Air Station from 66-67 (15 yoa) on Nasarstrasse(sp) as an Air Force brat. It was some of the greatest times of my life. I use to walk many times from the house to Lindsey AS just for something to do - it was always fun. None of us had cars as teenagers - got in pretty good shape - walking everywhere. Then I was assigned to Spangdahlem AB with my own family from 1988 to 1992. It was really great to see the same places with my own family.

    the airbase to Lindsey many times. We had ration cards for booze, coffee and
    thinks like that. Smokes were a buck 20 a carton.

    1977-1980, Lindsey Air Station, USAF CBPO. Did several tours in Germany, but Wiesbaden was my all time favorite. I got in a couple of visits back there after my retirement in 1992. Planning another one hopefully in 2018. WIESBADEN UBER ALLES!!

      My German father-in-law hung out at Lindsey Air Station with the German-American Kontakt Club. He did a lot of volunteer work there in his spare time giving orientation classes, conducting tours, and having fun with his American friends. He knew a lot of the command leadership. I met his daughter in 1976 and we married in 1979. I also retired from the Army in 1992 after 20.
