In terms of the fire department, it's a volunteer unit so I have to wait until the 3-month probationary period is over to see if they will allow me into the unit or not. You can follow that adventure here:

In regards to Frankfurt, were you stationed there or did your job take you here? In terms of the military, the US is pulling out of Frankfurt in favor of Rammstein AB. They closed and returned Rhein-Main AB to German control late last week.

Shores,

I am sorry, I thought you were in the military. Your Avatar is very Brigade Looking, nice as it is. My bad. I was stationed at the 97th General Hospital in Frankfurt, and use to fly into R-M all the time. I served there in 86 & 87. I won't assume anymore, sorry brother... -LOL

You were close , it's the patch of my volunteer unit at the Cologne Fire Department. The emblem is the official Cologne city symbol. I'm not in the military myself but my middle brother is an 8-year reserve MP (SGT.) assigned to the 341st MP Co. which is stationed in San Jose, CA. He has 4 more years to go.

Here's a site I did on the former Pershing Missile HQ (56th FA Division, Schwaebisch Gmuend - 50 km east of Stuttgart - attached to 1st Infantry Division (forward) based at Cooke Barracks, Goeppingen):

The former 56th FA HQ was the location of the University of Maryland's Germany campus from 1992-2002. I attended my first two years of college there.

Ask away if you have more questions,

Wow Boyzzzzzzzz, she torched us all, every one of us is scarred right down to the last eyebrow. Well, here is my "Goofy", (And by the way, she is correct about that) take on this whole thing. I believe that since we all, (in successful relationships anyway), allow the female of the species to "Believe" they are in control.. , that we accept her comments and write them off as "Plausible Deniablity". I for one believe that, based on her knowledge, and her personality, that she is so beautiful that our little hearts and brains couldn't deal with it. Kind of like a reverse Medusa effect,we would look at her and go insane....you know, like Ulysses and The Sirens. Anyway Ms. Charlyee, we bow to your wishes for now. We will not pressure you anymore, at least this month, for a pic from Wi.

YOU WIN!!! FOR NOW!!!

Wow!

You covered every person that has asked for posting your picture. I guess you like to make sure you cover every one of your tracks. I am impressed.

Well, if I am ever back in Wisconsin in the near future, I will be sure to tell you.

Personally, I think it would be cool if we had a meet in Chicago (for the people close to the midwest, a meet in California, for the people in the west, and a meet somewhere in the NE (maybe DC) for the people in the NE)). I think that would be cool.

Gamer, I think that would be an excellent. I would be more than happy to participate in a Chicago meet.....

Thanks Charlyee. It would be neat. But I don't know how or when something like that would happen. It would probably have to be in a couple more years when I am done with college and my master's program and on my own. Then, I can take a vacation (by myself) up to Chicago or somewhere else.

Or we could have a meet in California and you could get to meet me and Tony E and Zaphod B.
