Brooke Barracks 1961-1963 Was on I.S. duty Aug 13. Did the train guard and the prison guard. Remember the Hofenblute bar very well (not forgetting the fifty ph bar). Have yet to go back and take a look. |

| Finally got Google Earth - looked up my old stamping ground - the Families' Pool, in the Stadium complex. I used to paddle there in the early fifties, learned to swim there in the late fifties, became a lifeguard there in the late 60s, and we had great fun avoiding the foreman and playing pontoon. Hey, Berlin - why have you let this pool go to ruin? What an act of vandalous neglect!!! It was a superb place for swimming, sunning and mild romance (well, it was the FAMILIES pool!) |

Hello!
I was Headmaster of Gatow School Berlin from Aug 1977 to Dec 1994. I would like to have the time right now to recall many, many tales of the 'Berlin days' but at this moment we are busy sorting out many 'treasures' from our years in Berlin!
