I was in 3/68Th armor division in Coleman Barracks from 1979 to 1983 This was my first oversea duty station. I love Mannheim; the food was great the people were outstanding and I had some of my most memorable times in Mannheim. If I could go back, over there I would go in a heartbeat. I can tell you stories about Mannheim that would blow you away. I should say that if you have the opportunity to go there, I would make it one of your stops you would not be disappointed.

Great worst stand- I remember it well. My favorite memory though was working the stockade next to the soccer field and getting the best jaegerschnitzel in all of Europe at the little bar- restaurant next to the field across from the prison.

Lived in BFV 1978-1981 stationed with 512th Maint Co, 1986-1986 with 8th ID and 51st Maint Bn. Bison Burgers at the Club and Eichbaum at the community fests come to mind and Heidelburg was so close by for fun.

I was stationed at Coleman Barracks from June '73 to November '74. I was a chaplain's assistant attached to the 5th Infantry. The Wurst stand was the best, the smells from it would often waft in through the open office windows in summer.

It has changed some since the early 70s when I was stationed at Coleman with the 2/13 Inf. Meet a lot of great people there on post and off post. There was a small Wurst stand just past the gate at the bus stop and MP office, best Wurst in the country.
