Germany has change a lot since I was last there in ’92, not for the better:traffic is insane, parking is impossible/expensive, and the people are more rude than you can imagine. But all in all I loved it! It was so good to see Ferris Bks. again. As an M.P. my part of the post is still there, the M.P. station, my barracks, our motor pool, P.X., skating rink, NCO club, EM club,church, and yes… class six. I also went to Bad Krueznach where I was stationed later and they were in the process of tearing all of the posts down there, very sad! I love Germany but damn it’s good to be home!Bill (Moose) Conner: Lucky guy: Wish I could have went back. I was in Erlangen with 1/35 Armor, then when I went back in 81 I was stationed at Dexheim with 12th Eng Bn. I was living in Bad Kreuznach which was then 8th Infantry Div. I was living in one of the high rises just east of the post. Was on the 32nd floor, excellant view of the entire town, especially when the fireeworks were going off, man it was great. Heck Stormin Norman was the Asst Div Cmdr when he was a 1 star. I know you had a great time. |

I was at Ferris Barracks from 62-64 with B company, 1/35th Armor back in the days when it was the 4th Armored Division. I got pulled out of the tanks and put in the Training Aids/Armory/Supply room when they found out I could read without moving my lips.We were known as the “Bravo Buffers” because if it was a horizontal surface, it was waxed and buffed. Remember the grooves in the floors on the hallways? Just the width of a P38 C rat can opener. 1st Sgts favorite little “extra detail” was removing the oldwax and reapplying the new. While I was there it was the time of the JFK 50 mile hike craze and 3 of us, me Charlie Harper, and Mike Hamner decided to try it. The other two made it, but I collapsed after 47 miles…hey what the heck, I was used to riding in a nice track. Also remember roadmarching to Bamberg (and back)in a howling blizzard when all the other units stayed in their kasernes. The slop chute of choice was the “Reichs Adler” back then. Anybody remember that.Richard: Hi Doug: Do I remember the Reich’s Adler? Best time of my life. Met my wife there and we have been married for 50yrs.Walt: MMMMMMMMM and she put up with you for fifty.Richard: Of course she did! How else would you want it!Dirndl: Hey Richard ,ask Walt how long Rose has put up him.LOL.Walt is it 53 years for you and Rose?Richard: Well, Walt, you heard what Dirndl is asking of you! so go ahead, I’m listening.Walt: Well close to it March 6th 1956 that would be 52 2009 will be 53 of course I am still a teenager by thought.Dirndl: Pretty darn close.Was only a few month off don`t you think Richard.Congrats to both of you Walt & Richard for keeping your wifes happy for so long |

581) Walter Broadwell rose445@bellsouth.netLocation: Snow Camp, NC | Tuesday, 3. June 2008 10:32 IP: 74.167.144.192 Barring congressional action (HR 2785), the Medicare payment rate to physicians will be reduced by 10.6% in July of 2008. This directly affects TRICARE beneficiaries because TRICARE payment rate is based upon Medicare’s sustainable growth rate (SGR) update formula. This means that doctors will be forced to accept less money for medical procedures. In the past these reductions have caused doctors to turn away TRICARE patients and will likely do so again if the reduced payment rates are not blocked.
This issue will adversely affect survivors, retirees, members of the active-duty, Guard and reserve and their families, especially those living far from military installations. There are already some doctors in remote areas who refuse to see new TRICARE patients. Without congressional action to ensure these cuts don?t take effect, more doctors may chose to turn TRICARE beneficiaries away.Walt: To reas more go to Military.com |

There were 2 teenage girls that used to come hang out at the pils eckla when I was stationed there. They invited me to there grandparents house for Thanksgiving,ity was 1983. I agreed to come only if I could buy the turkey. The grandparents only request was that I wear my “best uniform”. I bought the turkey and met one of the girls in town and she took it home. Thanksgiving day I arrived at the apartment only to find half a turkey cooked. I pulled one of the girls aside and said that I didnt want to be rude but where was the other half. She grabbed my arm and took me into the kitchen. As soon as I saw the oven I knew why. The turkey I bought was huuuugggggeee and there oven was half the size of what I was used to. So if either of you 2 girls come across this post( sorry I dont remember names, but I have photos) please email me because I still think of that every year when we have turkey.The only name I remember is they hung out with a guy they called whiskey.LiveinFerris: Joe Pearages telephone number 01149-9131-9336661-150: <a href=” http://www.scorcher.ru/ “>porno-sex</a> http://www.scorcher.ru/ porno-sex <a href=” http://www.scorcher.ru/ “>porno-sex</a> http://www.scorcher.ru/ porno-sex <a href=” http://www.scorcher.ru/ “>porno-sex</a> http://www.scorcher.ru/ porno-sex-150: 24TaNC You Are Brilliant.

By the way how do u upload pics? I have a few and would like to share them.Walt Broadwell: Goto the photo section and click upload photos very simple follow instructionsRichard Reed: Hi Walt: I sent an email to yo esterday to ask Eddie, why can’t click on PHOTOS? It won’t allow me to do so.Walt: As nice as the site is it appears that it’s running it’self. All my emails must go to trash can as I get no answers from anyone. Was going to donate but until I find out whats going on no way. I could care less about Nurnberg.AL: I know what you mean, I donated over a month ago and still nothing about it in the donations page. Autopilot sucks!Richard: Its quite evident that no one is monitoring the website.LiveinFerris: Ya, you can tell by all the spam that`s coming back to the website………Eddie is MIA as of late????Richard: Hey livein Erlangen. Anyone there from the 720th?Eddie: That’s not monitoring the website. It’s monitoring the WEBSITES. There are a total of 14 websites in the area. I have to keep up with the guest books in every site plus the message boards.
In the mean time I have to run 4 sites selling t-shirts and caps just to have enough money to keep these sites going. I also have to make all the shirts myself and ship them.
I get on the average of 900 emails a day on these sites. Most are spam, but I have to pick through them to find the real ones.
If I have 10 wanting their name put on the roster, the very next day 5 of them want to change their email address. That’s not even counting the ones that sign up on the message board and then the very next day they don’t know their password.
But I’m moving along slowly but surely.Walt: Thanks Eddie I was not aware you were controling all the other sites> I thought they were other links to go to. You have a job.If you need help let me know.Liveinferris: Not that I know of, but I`ll ask around……….AL: I didn’t mean to piss you off Eddie, I realize your plate is full. I come to this site almost every day and when I tried yesterday and only got your message I was depressed. Thanks a million for getting the site running again and for all that you do. Too bad everyone dosen’t put their money where their mouth is! DONATE!!!!!! |

I’ve written a lot of songs since then, and anyone is welcome to download the free .mp3 files listed on my site at gordythomas.com please disregard the fact that there are also song files for sale on the page, as it is not my intent to get you to buy anything.

Ennis: After the laugh you gave me with your “old” saying and your idiotic comment you remind me Mr. Schnider of the 569th. of the ignorant soldier who use to be an embarrassment to the representation of the US Military and why you were like the individuals that I threw in jail. If you don’t have anything intelligent to say then I suggest that you keep your mouth closed and errase all doubt that you are an idiot. Have a good day.Doug Schnider 569th PSC: Dennis: For your information, my original duty station was HQ’S 793rd MP in Fuerth.
I just wanted to let you know that you made 5 grammatical errors and 3 spelling errors on your most recent comment. That’s not bad. However, I don’t believe you would be able to pass even the entry level exam to become a member of the “Fighting 569th” with such a lack of basic English language skills.

Oh well I’ll look him up & see if I cann’t educate him with some manners.Steve Mead: Hey Dennis don’t worry about those that could not hang with the M.P.s. There is a reason he left them.

440) Jessica A. Valles reyslove@yahoo.comLocation: San Antonio, Texas | Friday, 26. October 2007 09:45 IP: 68.89.128.79 I love Erlangen. I lived there from 1965 until 1975. My grandmother “Annie” and grandfather “Robert” worked at the movie theater at Ferris Barracks. They made the popcorn and later sold sandwiches. They called my grandmother “Popcorn Annie”. I spent many days helping them. I also attended Erlangen Elemantary for a few months. I remember walking from the snack bar to the theater not matter what the weather was like. It broke my heart when they closed Ferris Barracks. I did visit there a few years back and it sure has changed. 🙂 |

This is Steve Huff I was at Ferris Barricks right before being deployed to the Gulf. I can’t really remember anything about my time there or people I knew. I guess I hit Ferris Barricks around the end of 1990 or beginning of 1991. I got a european out and stayed in Germany another 5 years. I am really trying to find fellow veterans that might know me so I can get you know you again.
I was stationed in Erlangen, Germany, Ferris Barracks, 1st and35th Armor, HHC. Later Top and I started a Combat Support Company to complement the other companies in the same 1st and 35th Armored Division between 1970 and 1971. I served as SP5 Tony/Antonio Rodriguez and worked personnel in the orderly room. I would love to make contact with any and all of those I worked with especially Captain Calvin Joyce, Captain Theo F. Hardies, SP4 Bill Albrecht, SP5 Dennis Bowman, SP4 Dan Mitchell, …My email is as follows: tonyarod8@gmail.com
I am wondering if anyone here served with Max ‘Kappy’ in Germany around 1953/4?? I see his wife and son flew out to FRA from Chicopee in 1951 and they all flew home in 1954 from Prestwick to Idlewild Airport…
Thanks in advance
