Spent the entire 80's decade stationed there myself...Mainz, Weisbaden, and Stuttgart were my old stomping grounds.

As a GI...I couldn't wait to leave, but now As a civilian federal employee, I'd love to go back. :)

Craig, Weisbaden is not far from Bad K., We use to go there to the P.X. Wasn't Weisbaden H.Q. for the 8th. Division? I was in the Seventh Army. I know if you were in Germany you were a field trooper.

Nice video. If I did my math right she was born in 1964 and I left in late 1963. Dang Man I've got Army Boots older than you guys. O and your wife looked as tho she was enjoying the tractor ride. Regards, Jim

Im sure there is Wheel horses in germany too.. but hard to find.. They build the Gutbord tractors soo i think that wheel horse had a hard fight to get in to the market in Germany..

And some tractors are imported whit other names.. i will find some pict of them-...
