Video

Grew up here, military brat, best memories in the 80s. My mom was Ruth Warren, Crechard after she married, if anyone remembers ♥️♥️♥️ thank you for this

Worked 2 of my 4 yrs (1973-77) at that Comm bldg at 3:36. Housing in those days was painted tone-downed dark green. Back then was a 304X0 (different AFSC's now.).

My dad was stationed at Hahn from 91-93. I was in 5th and 6th grade at the time. One thing this video doesn't showcase were the absolutely EPIC playgrounds scattered throughout base housing. At 2:00, in between the two buildings on the left was a structure built to look like a giant pirate ship. Towards the middle of the housing area was a series of interconnecting zip lines and platforms. When we eventually moved on base, just before we left for the US, my friends and I would roam around base housing, hopping from playground to playground. There was a unique sense of unity amongst the kids at that time. The base was about to close and the internet didn't exist, so it was extraordinarily difficult to keep in touch after we were reassigned. It was kind of an unspoken fate that we all shared and it formed a strong camaraderie amongst each other. It was a really magical time for me. I think of it fondly and often. Thanks for posting the video.

Hahn base housing was packed with other kids, forests and amazing playgrounds. I could safely ride my bike anywhere and play with dozens of friends. Your kids missed out with your unfair snap judgement.

Thanks for the memories I went around all those areas when Clark was in full spring in the eighties remember playing tennis with USAF officers at hensonville sub div.

man o man.... I never in a million years would have imagined there would be a video of where I spent 2 years of my life in the USAFE back in 90-92. . . I was the USAFE A1C that cost the commanding base colonel his 1st star, for reasons I will not share.... LMAO! Needless to say, I was a NOT so good boy the 2yrs I was there. Airmen and Grunts don't work well together... lol #semperparatus everyone still hanging in there.

I had a brief tour there in the summer of 1988. I was 20 and fell in love with another Airman. He’s gone now and all that is left are memories.

You almost got my dorm on your video if you had turned left at the rec. Center my dorm was next to the rec. Center. My job was on pad 60 with the transit area was. When you were there were was POL trucks at that was my job. Thank you for the tour wish they had remodeled the chow hall when I was there. 74-76 had so much fun again thanks.

Thank you very much for the upload.

Hahn was my first station out of tech school too. 1986-1988. I lived in Buchenburen. Amazingly they were letting single airmen live off base because of overcrowding. Thank you for the memories. I recognized a few places. But the memory is getting foggy after so many years.

Hahn was my first duty station. I was there from 1990 - 1992. It was toward the end of the bases time, and it had begun closing operations when I left. I met my husband there and we got married and are still married today. We had our first date at that base movie theater! Thanks for sharing this. Wonderful memories.

Came to HAHN as a single guy in 76' left it in late 79' married. So funny that the payday traffic was bad back then too, so we spent most of our tour in Sohren , the local places and up/down the Mosel. We both worked alternating shifts, sometimes waving at each other going out/in to work at the GCA. It was nice to see everything still rather busy in 1990, even if the fate of the base was doomed eventually. Still remember USAFE painting the runway in camouflage (which never made a difference lol). Thanks for the memory tour !

I am visiting over 30 years later and many of the buildings are still there, but what I find interesting in your video is how little traffic there is. Thank you for sharing.

Army Air Defense 72-74 Thanks for this.

Army Air Defense 72-74. Sentimental to know my old home is gone.

Great video! Was a Crew Chief in the 10th between 87-91. Talk about long work days and sucking rubber.... I do miss it though. It is called a love/hate relationship. Rotate back to the states with either a Shrunk, a Divorce or another child. I returned with a son. Great memories man! Thanks- John C. Sebolt

That F-15 crashed in 1995, sadly killing the pilot 😢

Great to see video of good old Hahn AB! I was there 79 to 80. I don't remember so many cars. I lived in that barracks just as you turned right toward the rec center. I spent quite some time at that rec center when I first arrived and I guess I fell into a pattern after that and didn't go there much. I was 18 when I got there and frankly I didn't have my priorities as straight as they could be. I don't think I was very good at my job. Those two years were good for me but not for the USAF. I was more into playing music and was in three different bands. In fact I looked up Hahn because I always wondered if my friend Don Davis ever made the big time with his songwriting. The famous band America(A Horse With No Name) has a special place in my heart because they, too, were Air Force enlisted stationed in Europe in the 70's and wrote enough songs laying around to become rich and famous. So they always reminded me of Hahn, although at the time I wasn't aware of this.

Ah, yes - 1958 to 1961. Pizza joint (The Hut) just across the street from the main gate. Not bad duty.

Wow… this was 10 years after we left… thank you for posting

I was there also, close to my home 👍

Man thank you very much. Really nice. ❤

1988-1990 50th trans. Loved Germany great experience!

I was stationed there as a dependent from 1977 to 1981, then as a military member from 1982 to 1984. Looking at this video I can envision myself driving down these main roads, since I did many times previously.

Thanks for the video. We were stationed at neubrucke 90 to 92. As of now I'm in hahn by the commissary

so glad you got this footage :) Thank you for sharing

My wife was born on Hahn in 1975

I just came and watched your drive thru Hahn again, It brings back a lot of good memories. It's been 35 years since I was there. It shocks me how much the base changed in the 3 years from when I left until you recorded this. The dorm beside the recreation center was the 2184th com squadron dorm when I was there, I was ground radar maintenance. You might know some of the people that I knew, my best friend while at Hahn was Dave Budworth, I think he was there pretty much till they closed it down. How I would like to go back to 1985 and do my time there again. It saddens me to think that it is all gone now.

Hahn was my first assignment after tech school 80 - 82. Wow -- the stuff that was done during those 2 years was amazing. I fell in love with the AF overseas and ended up retiring only to keep staying overseas. Lots of fun! I was part of the AFCC and we ran the communications for the base. Hahn was located in the middle of German farm country but wow did we find lots of fun!

The Lindsey Air Station Leopard Lasers - still going to today!

Stationed at Hahn from 83 to 85 . AGE Ranger. Saw my old barracks and old shop , workcenter . Baracks was less than a couple of hundred feet from my shop . I was the Midnight shift supervisor at AGE Servicing / Pickup and Delivery/ Minor Maintenance. Had the privilege of supervising and working with some amazing people on that shift . John McGuire, Dale Dauer , Tony Kniffen and Andy Americh . Our NCOiC of the sector was Tsgt Marion Addison. Awesome individual. Probably made CMsgt .

The Hahn AB Honey Suckers - still going strong!

Wow.. great video.. I was stationed there back in 89...

The Lindsey Losers - to this day that's still funny!

What restaurant was on base before it closed? It's been redone into another one now but I'm curious as to what it started as.

Can you please write what month the recordings are from? Do you have any more shots of Wiesbaden? thanks

I was there from 85-88. What a great experience. Thank you for sharing.

I was in European GEEIA, APO 332, in the early sixties. Took the shuttle bus from the airbase to Lindsey many times. We had ration cards for booze, coffee and thinks like that. Smokes were a buck 20 a carton.

Looks like spring or fall. Went there several times on a "mission."

Die geilste Zeit
