Interesting thread Hilmar. I was a GI in Germany during the early 80s performing physical security at HQEUCOM. It was and is still located at Patch Barracks in Stuttgart/Vaihingen.

I assume that USAPSSE was formed as a necessary reaction in response to some of the terrorist actions that took place in Europe during the early 80s such as the kidnapping of General Dozier by the Red Brigade and also the assassination attempt of General Krosen by the Red Army Faction. I also remember that there were a number of terrorist bombings on American Kaserns throughout USAREUR.
