3/8 Cav. 1970-1972 , also remember 1st day in Coleman ... heavy Hash smoke & warm beer. Alot of 3 year people cooling off after Viet Nam, good people.

I was in the 78th field supply co. from 1958-1960

Lived In BFV right across the street from the high school in 1957-58. Still have my old AYAA membership card. Didn't want to come back when rotation came for us. Loved Mannheim and hated Fort Riley Kansas.

I was stationed at BFV Dental Clinic from June 1986 to August 1989

I was with the 27th Eng from 1961-1964 in Spinelli Barracks

I also was there in 1971-1973 , working as a guard at the stockade.

I was with the 16th, next door Dec 67 to June 1968. Dave

I remember the buck and a half...lol...I was in 377th 1982-83 .Richard Everett

I was in the 1st Maint BN, the first barracks on the left in Aug. '66- Dec. '68.

I was lucky to have lived here from 1965 thru 1968 . This base will always hold a special place in my heart. Had a great deal of special time in the foot field with special friends . Had special times with friends that I wish I could find again. Richard Wesley

My husband was CO of the Coleman Barracks Prison from 1968 - 1969 - only a year tour of duty for CO's since it was such a high profile, nerve wracking assignment - I think he made the Stars and Stripes about a dozen times in just that one year! Lots of excitement but confinement was not his chosen MO although he seemed to 'stuck' in it after this tour. He was then reassigned to MP Hdqs in K-town and we finally had nice quarters and a safe place for the children to play! We then began to see some of our host country (and others) since he had seldom had opportunity to leave during his time at Coleman! I made up for the lack of his attention by becoming the Chairman of the Red Cross Volunteers at Benjamin Franklin Village in Mannheim, traveling to other chapters for training, etc. At least most weekends we could take the children and go 'castle hunting' in the near vicinity but not until he checked in before we left and when we arrived home, but I could see he never 'let go' and enjoyed himself - high pressure and a difficult year for all of us.

Hello Robert I was assigned with the 377th Trans Co also from June 1978 through December 1979 do you remember me?

I was at Coleman 1968-1970 in A Co and HHC 97th Sig Bn. In retrospect it is a great memory. Spent a lot of time at that Wurst stand outside the main gate either coming in from town or just walking out with an order for the guys in the barracks. Went back to Germany 5-years ago and the beer is still great!
