I was stationed there at the same time you were 1977 to 79 I worked right across from the main headquarters in the ministration building only five women in the building next to it in our barracks remember walking up that cobblestone steep Hill to go to the gym they would have boxing matches there.
'62-'64 as a 7th Army truck driver [12th Trans Co in Boeblingen-near Stuttgart] we would get missions to haul for Infantry / Armor/ and other Units. Transport troops from various areas up to Wildflecken for training. Also went to Graf and Hohenfels. The monastery had double bock beer and when there was a break in the training my Unit would haul Troops up to the monastery. Funny thing, some of us drivers would get so tipsy, the infantry guys drove our trucks back. Ahhh the good ole days. Another name for Wildfleckin was "Wild-chicken".
My Dad was stationed at wildflecken 1956-1959 For a time we lived off the base on a German Farm. The farm was a great experience. Then moved onto the base. There were a bunch of us army brats living up on that mountain. We were like wild Indians playing in the woods winter, spring, summer and fall. From a kids view point great years to have lived there My Dad would comment sometimes how it was tough holding maneuvers in the winter. He was stationed in Austria and Germany for 10 + years Survived world war 2. Bataan Death March, Hell Ships, Japanese imprisonment for 3 1/2 years. Cold in Wildflecken? He didn't care he was a survivor. Miss you Pops
Barbara I was a 75 Charlie next to the MP building where the old theater was our barracks was there in the office was next door next to the main headquarters were you in that same building
Stationed in Scweinfurt 2009-2012 with the 44th Expeditionary Signal Battalion. This is where we held the "2 liter challenge" upon returning from Afghanistan. Love this place.
