Comments: I was at C-3-71 from Jan 64 to Jan 67. I worked in the launcher area and in the EM club. I met my wife Helga in Brackenheim and we were married Sept 66. We have two sons and 6 grandchildren.I retired from the army after 22 years in Sept 1979.I Retired at Ft Bliss I was the First Sgt at A-4-1 basic training, the first battery to have OSUT. After retiring I went to the local community college and got a degree in HVAC. I retired from Honeywell after 20 years in 2003 then went back to work for Honeywell one day later as a contractor and worked for another 9 years. My last assignment in Germany was C-2-1. I had the honor of being the launcher platoon sgt. We had a unit with some of the best NCO's and officers I ever served with. In 1977 the unit fired out at Crete with a 99% the highest ever fired at Crete at that time in the 94th group, we kicked * * *.
We now live in Colorado Springs , Co. We spend time between our mountain home and our home in the springs. We built a log home in 1987 near Cripple Creek, Co to enjoy the mountains and the view it is beautiful country. Helga and I keep busy with different activities, her working with animal rescue and I keep some what busy playing softball with in the local senior league. I wish I had made the reunion here in the Springs it would have been fun.
