Needless to say, we were not invited back, don't know why.

Yes CSM Teague, the BN Co first name to me was LTC. The 09 was kicked out of the club in Wildflecken in 79 IIRC after a fight the post legs started. After a night of retribution against the legs and a day or so restriction the 09 was allowed back to the club. After a couple more nights the club was destroyed and the 09 banned from Widflecken. I'm not sure it's the same year you're remembering.
The next year the 09 went to Hohenfels. Which was fine, the Brits were there with beer rations and invited us to drink free. Decent troops the Brits.
I remember the Bn going to a Monastery near Wildflecken after a pre-ARTEP, maybe the one mentioned in this thread. Does anyone have the name for the Monastery. All I remember is great beer ceramic mugs and huge Saint Bernards.
