Is the Pool still there?
The pool is still there, however completely new renovated. The 10 meter Tower is gone. Remember, one of our '108' comrades used it once and brook his arm. The city wanted to tear down the pool - building, however, the building is under 'Denkmalsschutz' (was build 1936 for the Olympics). It's now in use for 'Polizei' and 'Sportsvereine ' and sometimes 'Schulen'. The rest of the area (what's left) ist occupied currently by elements of the 'Bundesarchiv' governmental institution. By the end of next week I'll be gone for a two weeks trip to Tirol with 'frequent' stopovers in Bad Toelz, Garmisch and Berchtesgaden - www.berchtesgaden.com/vorderbrand - for a travel into the past and memorable skiing time (winter warfare-training) with Det 'A'. By the way, is the listed E-Mail address in the Det 'A' roster still valid?

That's it for now (we need a 'Stammtisch' session ;-) !!!

As Always Hilmar
