Years ago

Another bunny trail, the link looked promising but panned out. I have spent several hours going down memory lane. Read a familiar story on line, some army officer reminiscing about his time in the Army. It was interesting as his time was before mine yet he was talking about events that had a major influence on my life. He was in Atomic Demolitions (Europe)in the beginning I was in Atomic Demolitions at the end. We walked some of the same trails used some of the same equipment and lived the same culture. The memories come back in bits and pieces which each leading to another search and additional memories. Wise and profitable use of time, I don’t know. Some of the updated news was not good, the barracks are gone now, nothing left. Some of the people are gone now but that was always expected. The barracks always seemed so stable. They survived war and were a part of history but nothing remains but memories and a few links and forum discussions here and there. Ah well it was a good means of growing up and I would not trade that time for anything, Germany in the early 80’s doing important work surrounded by great people (most of them anyway LOL) The accomplishments were worthwhile the spending time remembering…hit and miss yes and no, much like life in general.

Thinking of you my brothers but just a little (grin).

God Bless and thank you.
