US Army civilian. Mainly manage people and budgets.
I wondered when I saw your profile if you were working with the military at Wiesbaden.. I've been to Ramstein AB, Kapaun, Landstuhl and Vogelweh during my travels in the Air Force. Had some fun in Kaiserslautern (spelling?) too.
Not stationed there just hanging out.

Very nice. I was in from '92 - '95. Honorably discharged one year early from my tour of duty because they were doing the fiscal cutbacks then. K.I. Sawyer AFB drew the short straw for closure due to the USAF not needing northern-tier bases for bombing runs to Russia.

It was either stay in for another year and be shipped off to frigid Minot, ND or take an early out, so early out it was. :)

I got an early out in 2000 because of AFSC overages. I got to serve overseas a few times. Miss it now especially the chow hall food and midnight inflight kitchen. Lol As far as the mission, I was the guy transmitting the Emergency Action Messages directing those bombers and ultimately those people turning keys. Also did Presidential Radio and got to comm with Air Force One many times. Alot of AWACS etc too. Any kind of Airborne Command Post and even spy planes we talked to. It was a fun time although high stress.

I checked out your profile and just waiting for your ID to get verified.

The omelettes were the best in all the Armed Forces. Believe me I checked! lol

Yeah, it's been several days and not sure if they forgot about me or just haven't gotten around to it yet due to the influx of new profiles. haha

The breakfast options were always great. The spaghetti was pretty good too!

Did they have the BBQ burgers at K.I. Sawyer?
They would grill them and drop them into a huge pot of BBQ sauce that simmered all day. Man oh man those things were delicious but then again the box lunches of fried chicken at the inflight kitchen must have been infused with highly addictive chemicals. Lol

You can always message the webmaster and have him take a quick look. He is very good at what he does.

I don't think they ever had bbq burgers from what I can remember. Sounds amazing though! Now I'm hungry...

I'll do that. Thanks for the suggestion. I didn't want to pester anyone and figured it would just 'happen'.

Once or twice a year I get the chance to show the students. But unfortunately we do not have training for the kids at the club. We send them to the wrestling club or to judo.
