There's a lot to do in the city and you're super close to base, many airports, as well as the train station (that can take you anywhere in Europe). Maybe check with this civilian FB group in Wiesbaden for advice: facebook.com/groups/516236829299114/

Wow! Thank you for this awesome video, my father was a civilian (GS) assigned to Worms Germany from 81 to 88 where i went to High School in Mannheim. GO Bison "85!!!" So i was wondering if one day you can drive down to Worms Germany & walk the old Takkunen Barracks & Thomas Jefferson Village (TJV), These areas are now closed and reclaimed by Germany.. I would love a memory jolt if you should happen to find yourself in the area of Worms Germany. Its about 35 to 40 Kilometers South of Wiesbaden, because every 2 weekends a month we'd drive up to Mainz (for the huge awesome Audio shop they had in the 80s), then drive to the Wiesbaden PX bcuz there was a Godfathers Pizza there!!! Ah.... the good ole'days!!!

Hehe, the Marktkirche in Wiesbaden actually is relatively new. Built in the 19th century it was however based on the Neogothic architecture style. So compared to several other cathedrals and churches in Germany it's still a kid, bordering on just becoming a teen.

What can you say the big difference and pros and cons better Wiesbaden, Kaiserslautern and Stuggart? I watched your other videos as well. I'm curious how they are. I have 3 offers from all 3 places. Thank you!
@DTVDanielTelevision7 ай бұрын
Ouu lots to say about this one. I'd have to do a whole video that explains the differences, but it comes down to your personal preferences. For me, I would choose Wiesbaden because of how close it is to the airport (we love to travel), and it's not as congested as "lil America" in Kaiserslautern, nor does it have as much traffic as Stuttgart. Stuttgart is very spread out and basically located within a huge city with many highways, speed traps, and construction. But there are advantages to living there. K-Town doesn't really feel like living in Germany (to me) because of all the American amenities, but on the flip side, you'll find all types of various foods, shopping, and right outside of the city there's lots of hiking, castles, and fun day trips!

Is there a hospital there? When my ex-husband and I were stationed in Frankfurt in 1974-77 we had access to the 97th General Hospital and that's also where I worked. We had the intensive care nursery for the European command and the middle east. I worked in the Orthopedic Clinic and I believe the 97th was the Ortho hospital for the European command as well. My ex worked at AFN as a master control operator. The 97th and AFN are long gone in fact I don't know if there is any American military left in Frankfurt. That was a wonderful time in my life and an experience I will never forget. Thanks for letting me reminisce! I asked you in a previous post about the bratwurst/brochen stands because there used to be one right across the street from the AFN building.
