Our ODA spent some time along the IGB with their 2nd Reconnaisssance Squadron providing some FOB support out of Bad Hersfeld for our JCS directed tasking - they made a good 'smokescreen' and we affectionately referred to them as the 11th Armored Carnival Regiment. I still do.
Got a neato border service certificate from them, though.
