I too have great memories of Berlin and the Berlin Brigade. I arrived as a new Infantry Leutenant in 1971 and had several Platoon Leader roles in B, C and CSC 4-6 Infantry (was 4-18 when I arrived). I served a tour as the Officer of the Guard at Spandau and remember that Rudy looked a lot like my Grandfather. We had hand picked soldiers and a very special mission which eventually succeeded. Left in late 1974 for Ft Riley Kansas and retired in 1998. Thanks for sharing. |

Stationed in Berlin from '80 to '83. FO for 3/6 FIST, C/94th FA. Married a Germany woman in '82 & have been married to her ever since. The time in Berlin was great, although we spent an awfull lot of time in the zone. If the infantry wasn't there the C Battery was. The Artillery wanted the best FO's to go with them & since 3/6 Fist was the best, we got to go too! After reading the guestbook many more memories, training with the British, The Irish Rangers mainly. WOW! what fun we had. |

Hello everyone, I was just reading most of the guest book and it's so cool that everyone enjoyed Berlin, as I did, but hardly remember any of my friends. Beside working at McNair Barracks I also worked at Clay Headquarters in the EOC (Emergency Operations Center) and let me tell you the calls we received were very interesting. Again I have no regrets and hope to talk a vaction there. If anyone knows me drop me a line. |

I was also stationed in West Berlin in 1989, and I enjoyed my tour there which was very interesting, since then I've been interested in WWII history. I was there during the spider glass concert with david bowie, eurythmics, bruce hornsebe, when rudolf hess, died and just caught the begining of the wall coming down. |

Hi there- Great site! I served in Berlin from 1991 to 1993, stationed at McNair Bks as a FISTER. Great time! Met many wonderful people and drank a few beers. I was a pretty good boxer then and had many wonderful times. I hope all is well with everyone I knew! |
