Very cool. I was in many of those places in the late 1980's, a generation later than the film. Equipment was different, but the mission was the same.
Battery C 94th FA--BERLIN BRIGADE. Strackest unit in the Army in the 70's
7350th ABG Tempelhof in the late 80s. Was the best duty in the USAF for me. Anyone have any idea when this was filmed? I swear we still had all that 1960s tech seen here in use when The Wall came down in ‘89.
3rd Armored Division 6 Years I guarded that area.
Thanks for your service to our great nation.
Blood and Steel !
Cool 100th ASG patch !
In Berlin from 61-64
😊 I was there too wonderful then even when President Kennedy came there the G2 patrol, and guarding Spandau prison
A-3-6 ..Feb.1961--Aug.1963.
I got to find 80 version myself Brian rose
287th MP Co (Sep) Jun 74 to Jan 77.
The big show the cold war or lie.
Spent 3 years of my life playing those cold war games. 8th I.D. Baumholder, what a joke and waste of time it all was. I swear we were just there to prop up the German economy and no one took anything serious. People have asked me years later what is was like to serve in Germany during the 80's, my answer was, blurry, because we were always drunk.
You would have had a better time in the Marine Corps defending the far east (Japan,PI,Australia,S.Korea)
in those years.Six years mid 80's into the early 90's.The beer was just as plentiful as Germany
and the girls just couldn't be beat.
10:57....Hahahahahaha! This German (...or perhaps American G.I?), has forgotten himself! He still "lives" back in the days of Wilheim, of W.W.I....!!! Look at his moustage!......Real W.W.I vintage! Hahahahahahaha!
I was stationed in the FRG in the mid-80s (when Reagan brought respect back to the US). As much as I detest war, it appears we need to send at least 100,000 troops & airmen back to Germany or even to Poland before Putin decides he wants more territory. History repeats itself, but nobody listens.
Yeah, sure. Provoke hime even more so he get's an excuse for "retaliation"
Paul Mares Evil occurs when good men do nothing...or something like that. It's a sad fact that peace through strength probably does prevent war. Right now, NATO forces in Europe could not stop any Russian military advance for more territory. Putin will get away with as much as he can until someone makes the risks too high. Unfortunate, but true.
A Yank
I think the Russians could use exactly the same statment and it would be vaild as well
Paul Mares Tit for tat. We live in interesting times, for sure.
Reagan an asshole? hahahaha ok commie lover
