Looking for more information from military/civilian
personnel assigned to or associated with the U.S. Army
in Germany from 1945 to 1989. If you have any
stories or thoughts on the subject, please contact me.
This page is meant to provide a place for posting historical information on TC units and
TC-related topics that are outside the scope of my 'USAREUR project' but are interesting and worth sharing.
