I was a member of the 49th Army Band, stationed in Vienna. I was there from around Christmas, 1947 to July, 1948. We played at not only military formations but concerts in small villages (I suppose for propaganda purposes)

Bill... Great website and quite informative. I served with 88th Recon in both TRUST and USFA during 1954 through 1955. In TRUST in the small town of Duino and than at armitise outfit moved to Linz/Wels via Camp Darby and its tent city. Of course it all came to and end in late 1955 when we folded the guidon and left for the states. Be happy to communicate with any members of the 88th Recon. Again Bill...one great site.
