    Hey guys. Just thought I'd make a post since its been awhile. The army just stationed me in baumholder germany. I've been here since tuesday. Anyone got any history of this place. I'd really like to find some photos of it from the time when the german army used it and what units trained here. Anyways germany kicks ass. I love being stationed out here.

    Hey PG, I was in Baumholder in 93-94. I understand the base to have been a calvary training base and later panzer training. The area where the class VI and shoppette are were the stables for the horses. That is all I know about it. Have fun. Tschuss!
