Ya! although it was called " The Cold War " there were some very tense times, I was there in November of 1963 when John F. Kennedy was assassinated, we spent somewhere arround 3-4 weeks sitting in our aleart area with full combat loads waiting for the word to move out! Thankfuly that word never come!

Re: US Army film about 2nd. Cav in Germany
Thanks for the movie
The cold war was in Germany we always feel.
Our village was razed by US because SS troops did shoot troops at the U.S. troops(WW2).We have found many dud grenades and munition as children, also very many planes with us in Memmingen are crashed in the Woods located
I have this photo in the 1980s as less young manoeuvres in Germany made of the sizes
