We Made It To Germany 🇩🇪 It’s not how I remember it! 45 Years So Much Has Changed!

Today we finally made it to Germany where I will get to see my family for the first time since 5 1/2 years ago. This will also be the first time that Gift meets my family in person. My first day is bittersweet as so many things have changed and Germany is not the place I remember it being. Join me while I take you for a little trip down memory lane.

I see your very happy to see you son, grandson and his girlfriend. It's been sometime and great for you to go down memory lane, how things changes. I don't have to say enjoy yourself there, it's very noticeable. Enjoy your time there with your family and Gift.

[@thaigirlgiftforeignerjoe7774]

Thank you 🙏. It was great seeing both my sons and grandchildren. Gift is loving Europe.

[@Walt-ck5qn]

Hello Gift & Joe! Good tips to know. Was stationed in Frankfurt Germany during '70-'71 for the US Army at Drake Kaserne, 3rd Armored Division HQs. Participated in the Reforger I joint military exercise with the US Army and German Army. Our Cold War Mission Statement was to defend the Fulda Gap, a route that would allow Soviet forces to take over Europe. Watched the ping pong ball drop with my number on TV; drafted and entered military service May 12,1970. Traipsing down memory lane brings back cherished memories, but Father Time doesn't stand still or stop. Good for you reuniting with family, making more memories with Gift meeting them too.

[@thaigirlgiftforeignerjoe7774]

Thank you 🙏 so much for sharing. Gift and I are having an amazing time with my family.

[@gregh7457]

I was part of reforger 10 years later in '81. Gawd that was 43 years ago now. It was one of the best summers of my life there in the german countryside camping out and living out of army trucks and tents

[@kayanderson4763]

So cool you got to see your old barracks! I can only imagine the memories you were having seeing everything around the old base even though it’s changed so much. 👍🏼

[@thaigirlgiftforeignerjoe7774]

It was! It brought back some good memories.

[@my-smalltowns]

Well you made it. Yes I left Germany in 1965 went back 20 years later and last time in 2006 it's crazy when you look for landmarks that are not there anymore. Stay safe , thanks for sharing. Don't forget to drink that German beer 😊

I was stationed in Berlin and left in 1990 right after seeing the wall come down. Loved that place and the majority of the people I meet there. But it is so different than it was back then. I have a friend who moved back there and updates me on all the things I miss and whats changed.

[@Walts-Travel]

The intro had me in tears. I was there in the late 80s and left in 92. Running around my old stomping grounds. That is crazy. Appreciate you taking me down memory lane.

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you 🙏 for your Service.

[@smartbiz888]

Òur house is about 15 minutes from the Hanau area... While stationed in Germany (many places to include Frankfurt, Schwabstadl near Landsberg am Lech, Gunzberg, Pirmasens, and Heidelberg to mention a few) over 25 years I grew to love the country... Seeing everything and the changes really touches the old heart strings... Both my daughters and the 6 grandkids all live there still today... Nice you are able to get back there...Lots of changes but still a very nice place to live (if expensive)... Enjoy your time, you've got a great family, Joe...I'm sure Gift is enjoying too! Tchuess für jetz! 🙏🙏🙏 👍😎👍

Thank you 🙏 for sharing. Also, Thank you 🙏 for your Service.

[@NomadicJayye2021]

I love this video. It brought back so many fond memories. Hanau was my first duty station. I was there from 1982 to 1984. My barrack was on Hutier kaserne. Your mentioning of all those familiar names like Pioneer, Skyland Club, Fliegerhorst and my favorite Lamboy Strasse as well as few others were like music to my ears. I will watch it a few more times just To reminisce. Thank you🙏🏾

Super Super Super. To see your interaction with your son and grandson was touching. You remembering your barracks was amazing. I remember my tour of Katterbach, Mannheim, and Heidelberg starting in 1980, but nothing with the details you've shown. This really touched a place deep in my soul. God bless. Thanks for sharing.

[@thaigirlgiftforeignerjoe7774]

[@richardbrighton3381]

It must have been quite emotional to meet up with your family and then revisit where you once lived and worked, to see how it has changed! i have seen videos of the airbase where I served in Germany, everything is still there but nature is slowly reclaiming the land back - so sad to see compared to when I was there. Enjoy the rest of your tour and time in Germany! 👍😃

It was nice to go back in time seeing what life has brought you up to this point.

[@jameshull808]

Great video! One thing you can count on, is change. I left Hahn AB in 86, and visited in 2010 & 2012, and the base was a commercial airport. The one thing that hadn’t changed was how nice and friendly the local residents were. One shopkeeper even called up my landlord(unfortunately she wasn’t home, but I got Mail from her later). So the other thing that didn’t change is everyone in a small German village knew everyone else’s business.

[@thaigirlgiftforeignerjoe7774]

Thank you 🙏 for your Service.

[@FOCUSonASIA13]

Nice video Joe! Your memory is a lot sharper than mine, I can hardly remember where most of the stuff was on Clark AB. I also had fun seeing my old barracks here , its still standing but in sad shape. I think Gift was bored LOL Your son is a giant haha

You must have done quite a bit of partying. All I heard was this club, that club, club, club, club. It’s always fun going back to bases you were stationed at overseas.

[@graemeaylward8313]

Wow Joe that was some huge base that you worked in during the early days of your Army career! The only thing I can equate it with is USAF Mildenhall and Lakenheath in Suffolk, not too far from where I used to live. Great to be able to get into your old quarters for one last look before it is lost forever. I always have mixed emotions whenever I go back to my old haunts and see all the changes, not always for the better. How great to be able introduce Gift to your family and to spend some time with them. God Bless you all 😀❤🙏

Man this brings back memories of my time stationed in Germany. Looks just like our old barracks. I was stationed in Heilbronn/Nekarsulm from 87-90. I was in Pershing Missile unit and after the treaty with Russia they got rid of them and closed down the barracks. I don’t have any idea if anything is left or if I would even recognize anything but would love to go see!

[@michaelmmcintyre]

I was stationed on Cambrai Kaserne in Darmstadt. I went back right before they started ripping them down. I still stay in touch with many of the guys. It was sad, but it really hammered home the fact that we loved that place because of the cross section of the time, the place, and the people.

Hey Joe, I don't recognise Germany anymore even though I grew up there. I left in 1993 and lived in Thailand since then. The cityscapes in Germany actually don't change that fast, but the changes in society and politics are tremendous.

[@thaigirlgiftforeignerjoe7774]

I agree ☝️

[@geminiguy2013]

I can relate Joe. I was stationed in Aschaffenberg 66-67 and was just there back last Sept. and it wasn't the same....I did my best to attempt to recognize and put myself back to no avail. The only recognizable things were the old Schloss and the old church that I still have 57 yo. postcard of it. Have a great time with the family.

Also worked for the Brits in Düsseldorf so can't wait to see what Gift makes of the Altstadt and the Kö.

90-92 in Wildflecken. Last guy to get shots on a make up day. I walk back knowing were were going to be deployed. Crap tons of work to do. I get back to the unit and 3 privates are standing around a small 13 in black and white tv. I about starting going off and decide to ask sarcastically why they weren't working and said, whatcha doing? And one turned to me and said 5000 Iraqi solders just surrendered. lol Our unit went on to deactivate. I served during peace time, then war, then peace time again. I tell everyone they heard I was coming and so they threw in the towel.
