I was stationed in Kaiserslautern Germany in 1970. This town was almost flatened during the war and at that time the effects of the war were still showing. All the trees looked like a tornado had went thru. The builds we used were old barracks from the germans and many of the builds had the corner stones in place yet. I lived n a small town east of there and even today they are still finding bomb that did not go off as it was used as a dumping grounds before the bombers went back to their bases. I have many friends that were raised there and I wish I could get some of the pictures their parents and grand parents took after the war. I a, surprized that the number of our troops killed wasn't higher. They are still finding bombs yet today. When I was there 2 years ago we always went to a gusthas on top of a mountain and ate as it was beautful and peaceful. There was a big church there that wasn't used any more and I told my wife to stand in the doorway and I would take some pictures. She did and then asked what all the holes were around this doorway. They were bullet holes and the same all around all the windows. It gave me an erie feeling just knowing that a lot of people had died here. I guess that is why it was always so calm and peaceful there. My dad was in the Pacific during the war and he would never talk about it. At the time of his death we found out that he had 4 bronze stars plus many other medals but all these year we never knew. I cannot imange the hell that these guys went thru and some of the this they saw.
