Of course i had to do the 6 mos. in Desert Shield/Storm but I was fortunate enough to never have to fire my weapon or be fired upon! Does anyone know what has become of Drake and Edwards Kasernes? Are they still Army, or did we give them back to the Germans? Man.......I had a lot of good times there, It's almost like I'm getting homesick thinking about it!
