Sgt. E5 US Army, 11B, Jan. 1972 to Jan. 1975

After Basic and AIT my entire enlistment was spent in West Berlin watching Russians watch us. Had a good time overall, Berlin is or at least was a hell of a neat place.


Have posted this pic before but this is the changing of the guard at Spandau Prison sometime in 1973. Our platoon is taking over from the Soviets guarding Rudolph Hess.

To they guys who served in the last 40 years those uniforms and helmets must look about as archaic as a doughboy's uniform and rimmed helmet would have looked to us.
