Thank YOU. It was a great privilege to serve. I was garrisoned in an Armor unit in Vilseck. Our sister post was Grafenwoehr. I love Bavaria.
I think we could do the "No, Thank YOU!" thing forever. I'm just a civilian, but I'm also one of those guys who always outstretches a hand to any active member in the military as well as Veterans to let them know I appreciate their personal sacrifices to defend our Country.
I've made a promise to myself that before my demise I'll visit what I guess you could call my "Motherland", and Bavaria is on the list of places I will visit. You think after 6 semesters of Deutsch I would be fluent, by I can barely hold a conversation in German. Something I should remedy.
Tying this post together...I can't wait to sip/gulp a beer(or twenty) at the Hofbrauhaus in Munchen. My Father has been plenty of times, and always brings back a souvenir for me.
Also in related "what are you drinking" news, anyone else drink Dr.Enuff?
I can't find it anywhere any more, and it was the only soda with benefits that I enjoyed.
Yes, I said "soda with benefits".
