Did you know that there once was a German-America in the USA? The "Americans" purged and removed German-America from its history. Did you ever study the purge of German-America in 1917 under the Wilson Administration? They declared the German language a War-Crime in 1918. From a historic perspective: America purged German-America and built a littleAmerica in Germany after that. On paper it looks really strange, history wise. Now,basically, the German Economy seems to be a official "threat" to the USA according to Trump& Biden as well. Looking at H.R. 3364 "Adversaries Act",it makes Germany a opponent to the USA and the Pipeline is directly aimed at. The question still remains to this day:Is the USA a friend to Germany or a Arch-Enemy that occupies Germany.

When I was there from 1971 to 1973 you had to leave the base to find any American fast food joints. I had a place that I rented in Mackenbach and commuted daily. If I took my bike to work I could sneak through the woods south of town and go through the fence at the north edge of the golf course and cut a bunch of time off my ride. My formal barracks was just across the street from the theater on the south side. The BX only carried food as a grocery store and clothing. No sporting goods. You had to go into K'Town to find a bike shop. Pretty much had to go to the Alps to find a ski shop. I had some really great times back then. I even got a TDY to Berchesgarten and Chimsee

I was there the 1st time in 1955 to 58. Again in 1973-75 when I retired. In 1955 it was 2 bases, South side where the runways are, was named Landstuhl Air Base and the North side was Ramstein Air Base. Somewhere later it was changed to just Ramstein AB. Lots of changes of course. Good to see how they are taking care of military and their families. Many fond memories for my wife and I as newly-weds lliving in Ramstein Village and later for the whole family living at Sembach. Richard Wall MSGT USAF Retired

Was stationed there from '89-'91 when the wall came down. It was a luxury base back then but is 10X more stacked with amenities and conveniences now. I worked under Air Force Communications Command. Gen. Dugan was CINC when I got there. Met him once, didn't think much of him though. I thought he was out of shape and undisciplined for a four-star. He left after a year to join the Joint Chiefs of Staff and subsequently got canned and forced to retire for talking out of class about strategies for the upcoming Gulf War. Gen. Robert Oaks took over the CINC job at Rammstein. A big-time Mormon but a good squared away leader. I remember me and another airman went to his base residence to pmi his KY-3. Nice digs and a cute teenage daughter to boot, lol. Had many good times in Germany. Took 30 days vacation and traveled Europe extensively. Miss that base. If you're going into the AF you'll want to put this base at #1 on your dreamsheet...trust.

Sure is. But right now they are in the process of building a new hospital at the eastern part of Ramstein. This new hospital will serve the whole of KMC when it is done, and LRMC will be closed down.

A lot has changed since I was stationed there ‘88-‘89, especially in the BX, Commissary and shopping areas.

Just came across your video. How’s the pricing within the BX? Is it almost the same as the stores on the outside in the civilian world?

It's about the US average for items.

Ramstein AB Alum 83-85: WOW! Nice Job, Lane. What does NCO Club look like now? German Kantine still there? Jager schnitzel mit salat und fries - way better than Taco Bell. Adjacent villages and Kaiserslautern awesome not too mention getting to know folks off base and speaking German.
