Hi Guys,
my name is Mike and I live halfways between Munich and Bad Tölz, Germany.
I am 37 years old, married to a German girl since 1996.
I was born in Böblingen (just a quarter mile from Panzer Kaserne, at the Kreiskrankenhaus
). My father was a US servicemember in the 1960´s, my mother is a local national from Stuttgart.
We relocated to San Antonio, TX. in 1970, returning to Germany in 1976, after my mother divorced the old man.
I have been a Police linguist since 1988, working for the Bavarian State Police, Criminal Investigations Division. Through my job I´ve met alot of US servicemembers, from the 218th MP Co. (793rd MP Bn., 14th MP Bde) that we worked with on cases here in Munich (McGraw Kaserne), as well as guys from the 1/10 SFG(A) at Flint Kaserne in Bad Tölz.
I was still in contact with some of the SF guys, even after they PCS´d back to CONUS or to Böblingen or ETS´d. One of my good friends from SF (I even visited him at SWC after he transfered to Ft. Bragg) unfortunately passed away a couple or years ago. Others went to the Pentagon, to Carson, or elsewhere. There is no contact anymore.
Last time I was up at Panzer was in 1996, for a Hawaiian Luau at the Teamhouse/Garden of Eden.
Maybe I run into some of the guys I used to know on this forum ? Would be great to see old friends, and maybe meet some new ones. If there are questions, please don´t hesitate to ask.
Stay safe and God bless,
Mike
Munich, Germany
