1st tour was stationed by the Chek border attached to 3/2nd Armored
Cavalry who patrolled the border zone. 2nd tour was in Wiesbaden, in a
tactical intelligence group. Had fun both tours, but after getting
married, the 2nd tour wasn't as much fun. Still loved being in Germany
but the Army wasn't the same after getting married and having a kid.
Most service people took leave and went to the states for 30 days. I
spent all my leave time visiting Europe. Spain, Switzerland, Denmark,
Itally, England etc. - Those were the days!
Thanks for reminding me!
Have a wonderful day.
