    I am looking for a man with the last name of Wicker (may be spelled incorrectly). He served in Germany during 1960 and 1961 with the US Army.

    I was in C 1/68th Armor third platoon from Feb68 to Nov68, hung out at the Jaeger Hof in another village whose name I can’t recall it was on the same road that went by the Rod and Gun club on base. Also at another place in the same village owned by a crazy dude named Willy who had been a SS paratropper in WWII.

      Richard,
      I was in Co. C 1/68 from March 67 until Sept. 68 and was in HQ Platoon. The nearest village to B-Holder was Reichenbach. Have you been in contact with anyone from C 1/68?

      Hi Chuck,
      No haven’t run across anybody from Baunholder. What did you do there? I was in third platoon tank C-32. Do you remember 1SG Conner, he was third plt sgt then became 1SG. I still have my 8th Div Pathfinders Association card signed by him.

    Baumholder 8th Inf Div Artillery 13E & 82C
    3/62 to 5/65 7/16 Arty 7/67 to 9/70 5/83 Arty 3/73 to 7/75 1/83 Arty
    This was not fair!!
    Hi: What did 81st ARTY do in Wiesbaden to be moved to Strassburg Kaserne? The people of Wiesbaden just didn’t see the fun the Airborne GI’S were having downtown!! I spent 3 tours in Baumholder with the 8th Div Arty. The depot at Nahbollenbach is all gone; German Industrial Park now. There is a highway right down the middle of Idar right over the river; no more one-way on this side and one-way on the other. Lots of trips back to Europe; I try to stay at the camp ground in Baumholder near the Community center; last trip in 2007.

    Though the 170th Infantry Brigade, which includes roughly 3,800 troops, will be eliminated by this summer, the Army’s garrison in Baumholder will remain open. The brigade will be replaced by logistics and engineering elements currently stationed at Schweinfurt and Bamberg, Hertling said.

    “Baumholder will reduce significantly,” said Hertling, referring to a 40 percent cut to the Army’s footprint in the community.

    The move will leave Baumholder with 2,000 soldiers and about 3,000 family members, according to USAREUR.

      I was teaching at Baumholder Elementary (Smith) same time you were there (1974-77) . Lived in Neubrucke at the time where a close friend, Mike Boyatt was with 2/68. You may have known each other. I wish you well and hope your experience in Germany enriched your life.
