Today is Superbowl Sunday. While stationed in Pirmasens, FRG tonight people would come from all over northern Europe to watch the game. They came from as far away as Flensburg and Holland. And of course my section was there. The children (supposedly) were locked up in back. Language could get pretty foul with a bunch of combat arms soldiers watching a ball game and full of beer. We would down as much Parkbrau as we could find. The game was taped and after the game duplicated to be sent out to the units our friends came from. AFN didn't reach them.
This wasn't a solitary event. New Years Eve was at Jeff and Vanessas. July 4th started at the fireworks behind the chapel then move to Dave and Glorias. Thanksgiving was held at a gasthaus out in the woods on BS10. Even the Germans liked to party with us.
I hear people talk about lovefest at Woodstock. Not Even close.
