I was a dependant living in the Chicken

Fulda. I would love to hear from anyone who was there at that time.
I am especially trying to contact my best friend at the time Dennis
Brockel. I believe his parents names were Dale and Althea Boss, and
he had two sisters, Theresa and Bobby Jo. If anyone remembers myself
or my father, or has any info about Dennis or his family please write

Stationed in Fulda from 1960 to Jan 1963 went to Wildflecken on manouvers many times. Cold place. I am looking to get in touch with some of the guys I've served with in the Unit Police in Fulda. Larry Haberman, Van Dohlen, Miller, Clark, Story, etc I have found Toni Basic but he doesn't know of the whereabouts of any one else either. Do any of you have any helpful advise? |

Great site, remember all the good times, life is too short to dwell on the bad. Would like to hear from any of the guys that were there at the same time. Lt. Daryl Losch, James Liscomb (Wisconsin), Gary Ottone (Conn.), Paul Mazziotta (Jersey), Michael Ortike, Bruce Shaffer (from York Pa) Harry, Steve Corbett (Florida) Hockensmith (Kentucky)or anyone else. Remember the Rod and Gun, Movie theater, EM Club (some good shows) and getting off base and going to neighboring towns and their guesthouses for dances and drinks, ein beir bitter. |

One
of my more enjoyable tours. The local residents took excellent care
of me, lodging and great meals. The monestary was my second home, next
to the "Mickey Mouse Club" in greater downtown Wildflecken.
The Mouse Burgers were superior. Arnberg was a great hideaway. Looked
forwarded for the French Artillery to arrive for their firing sessions.
The first truck in their convoy was the wine wagon. They did have problems
firing the 76mm How. Why leave the hill in the winter ? The skiing was
great. |

Thanks to all who replied to my message. I was able to give Sarge a call and speak with him for the first time in 34 years. Your help is greatly appreciated. My wife and I were both at Wildflecken and Sarge was a great help to us. Thanks so much to the people who manage this site. It has brought back great memories and allowed me to renew an old friendship that was very important to me. Best wishes to all. |

1st Infantry Division's "Task Force 28" (1st Battle Group, 28th Infantry [reinforced]), commanded by Colonel Joffrey Boston, flew non-stop from Topeka, Kansas to Rein-Main in January, 1963. After maneuvering in 3 feet of snow for two weeks we arrived in Wildflecken where we trained for about three months before motor marching to the Cold War's front line to augment Berlin Brigade. 1/28th Inf. was reinforced by A Battery (105 mm), 2nd Howitzer Battalion, 33rd Artillery, 444th Transportation Company (Light Truck), & other Big Red One units. Wildflecken was good field training in the cold, snow, and mud. There was also a good EM club on the hill. |

Just been reading some of these messages, and it sure brought back memories of my time working at the medical dispensary. My then husband was with the 709th MP's. I remember Dr. Carlson, Slifkin,Hegstrom,Fightlin, all a great bunch of guys. It was a great place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there! Still, I would like to go back for a visit someday. If anybody remembers me, please e-mail me. I'm still a nurse - too many years! |

I'm trying to locate Sgt John W Koltes. The last time I heard from him, he was retired from the Army and working at the AFEES shop in Fulda. To the best of my knowledge, he still lives in Fulda, Germany. Any help that can be provided (address, E Mail address, etc..) is appreciated. I am still in touch with Dave Schroeder from the Heavy Equipment section and have seen Vic Nahlic a couple times since we left Germany. Had some great times when I was there, didn't realize how much I would grow to miss the place. |

Good afternoon. I was in the 564th MP Co and then the MPI Section while I was in wildflecken. My wife Mary worked at the Theater and at the thrift store. We lived on Helmut Patske Str., directly behind the theater so going to work took about 115 steps and a couple of sips of coffee. We too hated the place at first but then grew to love it. I especially like the memory of spending two years on the hill thinking we were snowed in and found out that the bottom of the hill (Wildflecken village)were enjoying sun and fun !! |

Hi all. Looking for anyone in the 54th around 86-89. I truly had some of the greatest times at what most people thought was a sap assignment. I still want to return to Wildchicken one day, just to see a part of the three years of history. I'd also like to see the open border. I too stuck my body past those pvc pipes, where the East German guards could shoot at you. Guess I was a little reckless. Man, we were all so tight and there were a lot of good folks, both on the installation and the local German population. Anyone in the 54th, or HHC, or especially commo, shoot me an email please. Thanks - Ted |

I try and sign the book every once in a while to see if anybody remembers me and would drop me a note. I am still looking for a lot of people that I used to know, loved to talk to, hung out with, and miss some of them dearly. It would be nice just to know what everybody has been up to. I lived accross the Green Goose in the duplex of the Restaurant that was owned by a lady name "Buzinka", had Siberian Huskies and always love to stay busy. I am going back in December of this year to visit and I cannot wait to see what things look like now. I hope it will not make me cry :). I wish everyone of you that I have met in the past the very best and hope I was not mean to you... God bless! |

I
loved and missed the very good friends and good times I had there in
Wildflicken Germany. I met my wife in (Regina)who is German in August
1981. We were married in April 1981, and still married today. I retired
from the US Army in Feb 2000 as a 1SG/E8 in the Infantry. I would love
to hear from anyone who was assigned to the 2-15 INF in wildflicken
during this same period of time. I especially missed people such as
my room mate SP4 McGee, SP4 White, and SP4 Craighead from the Support
PLT. SP4, Freney, and SP4 White from the Commo PLT. |

I was transferred from the 814 Engineer Company in Hanau to Wildflecken in 1971 and I finished up my tour of duty there, till I was discharged and went home in 1972. Its been so long that most of the names escape me but I remember the Platoon Sergeant's name was John Koltees, some of the guys in my platoon were Al Puckel,Robin Breadwell, SP/4 Medina,SP/4 Buzzard, Bobby Poindexter,Ellis Cora, the rest of the names are now lost to time. The thing that stands out the most was how so very cold it was there!!!! If you remember me or any of the boys from the HHC Company, drop me a line. |

Hi
to you all. I signed in once before about a year or so back. At the
time I wrote how I didn't see much about the 54th ENGRS. But now after
reading all the messages I see they were a big part off the Hill for
quite some time. I also noticed that someone was looking for information
about "Kathryn Hulme" who wrote the book "The Wild Place". |

Just began thinking about the "old days". Looking for contact/info from those that were there. Eddie Miller, Sgt Hackworth, Chief McKenna, Hector Macias, C.J. Dominiak, L.K. Attaway, J. Campbell, Munsell, J. German, B. Johnson, Medic Tracy Reno(?) and her friend Tammie (from Wild-"chicken" that was down for the weekend and slepted in Eddie's car one night-memories!!), and the person that has always kepted a special place in my heart Mary K. Slayton. I heared bad news about her (and Golden) from Bill Johnson after he PCS-ed to Ft. Benning after I did. SAD! Just looking for some info if available. I know there are more of you!

Really had a great experience at the Rock, my first duty station. I volunteered to go up there from Mainz. I extended for a extra year to stay. So many nice people and beautiful places. I'll never forget the first time I opened the barracks window and the clouds rolled in. We were mechanics, fire control specialist and armors supporting 1/68 armor and 108 MI. Going to hoesfeld and graf with those guys was great. I'll always remember that time in my life. 45and45days in the field. We were young and part of the end of a great barrier. That nasty wall coming down. I remember the flood of people walking threw the streets and on the roads to get to the west. This is a nice site and has brought back alot of memories some good some bad,but all a learning experience. Some day I will take my sons back to the Rock. All hail the GREEN GOOSE! thanks Rick |

I was in Recon platoon and drove 113s and 114s Looking for anyone that was there at the same time. Have a few pictures. Some of a 114 that caught fire and burned. Don't remember any names from my group, maybe someone can jog my memory. Do have pictures when we won second place in the MISPIC in 1968. All the Inf. units were in Nam. so we were sent to take the test. |

By
the way...is there going to be a Wildflecken Reunion this summer/year??
I read in the old guestbook that there was a reunion in 1999, so this
year would be another 5 years, and it is now 10 years after the closing
of WTA, isn't it? |

I
have written here previously and have been so happy to see this site
here. I thought perhaps it would also be nice to have a site for all
of us to post our own photos and share our own memories of Germany and
the post, so I am in the process (far from complete) of putting together
a site to do just that. It is listed above and is at http://wildfleckenchickens.tripod.com.

This
is my annual sign-in! I am so happy to see the site is alive and well
- as a matter of fact, it seems more alive than ever before...Just proves
my theory that Wildflecken was truly magical for many of us. 2003 was
really spectacular for me in as much as so many old WFL friends and
theatre volunteers and ex-employees found me! I have been signing into
this site since 1993 and at no time have so many folks contacted me
as last year.. Hummm what's going on here? A major case of nostalgia!

Worked
the border during the time the fence went up. They used crude tools
and wheel barrows working at night . gone by daylight and absent all
the day light hours. We worked night duty, going in under the cover
of darkness and out before light. We worked a sector from fulda about
15 miles south on several sites. shot at several times but really was
stray fire coming after an animal or something tripped a flare. Did
come close to capture twice as they wanted our radar equipment. They
were clever in finding us in the night. We were airlifted out once from
being snowbound and they were just over the hill from us at the time.
The last time, they came up from our rear at about two in the morning
and tripped out noise makers in the wire. We fled in the duce and a
half and two jeeps quickly. the guys in the rear of the truck had to
kick them out as we drove off in a rush. Too close for comfort. So many
stories to tell in a short note. Learned a lot, grew up fast and froze
my butt off. Good for the soul...............but don't recommend it. |

It's
a shame we were only there for training during Brigade 76- less than
a six month deployment, so we were not allowed to do anything that would
have made it more memorable-like leave base. |

Checking
the barriers around the impact area at O-dark-thirty. Great country
and great history. Went back on ReForger in 1991, but it wasn't the

I enjoyed my tour of duty and would love to do it again. It's been a fun life and I learned a lot of it in the USA. Ended up doing more than I planned with the army and National Guard. I still travel and work if I want to. I remember a lot of guys like Wellins, Dinkins, Hardy, Taylor, Cornsilk, Martin, Story, Applewhite. If anyone knows where they are let me know. |

I
remember the cobblestone road up the hill and thinking I was gonna get
to live in a fortress dungeon for 3 years. Hate the constant rain and
clouds - no where else on earth could a cloud sit on top of a hill and
be sunny and nice everywhere else. Miss it tho - kinds strange how it
grew on me. Lived on "C" street. Remember when they built
an addition onto the grade school - me and a pal spray-painted it inside
all over. LOL - being a punk army brat. Oh well - same sentiment here
- never expected in a million years to find a site ten + years later
for the place...cool to see all the comments. |

I was very young when i was in Wildflecken, but i remember it like it so clearly. My father, George Toney, served there when i was there. I remember the range and seeing the tanks. He took me to search for duds, and even let me keep one. I remember when the wall fell and even got a piece of it. The land was beautiful and the soldiers were great. I had the time of my life and plan to visit again soon. If you served with my father and would like info on how to contact him, email me. Im sure he would love to hear from you. |
