Thanks and dedicated to Jim Whitehurst and to his wife for filming sections of this 8mm movie. One of many reasons I'm post this is because my former supervisor Dennis once asked me "What did you guys do in Germany, sit around and drink beer?" Goes to show that many don't have a clue what GI's did in Germany during the Cold War in the 60's and 70's before and later. The following is a list of w...

My hip really felt the walk after walking on that sideways incline on the beach. Totally worth the next couple days of soreness and fatigue.

      I was on the southernmost sector of the border, OP's 60, 70, 80, so I didn't see any East German border markers. I did hear the East Germans were very aggressive and would chase people into West Germany who'd escaped from East Germany, shoot them, and then run back across the border. The Czech border guards were often friendly and would talk with us, and share a bottle of wine, until it was time for an officer to come around. If the guards got caught talking to us by a higher rank, they were sent to prison for 10 years. We used to walk joint foot patrols with the Czech and West German guards on paths that wove in and out of the two countries. That is, until some damned fool major, who couldn't read a map, got caught by the Czechs 50K into Czechoslovakia. Two weeks later, the Czechs took the major's jeep, all of his equipment, and his CAT codes, and sent that dumb ass and his driver back into West Germany literally in their underwear. 😁After that, we had to have permission to go within 50 meters of the border. I visited Prague twice after the fall of the Berlin Wall. What a wonderful city full of mostly friendly people.❤ @@larryg.9187

      @@r.daillee1034 ... Wow.. Fascinating history ... I could 'see' your story, as I read it ... I did border duty out of Coburg, in Bavaria ... Sometimes driving our jeep... Other times over night in a border shack next to the double border fence... That double fence was something like 100 yards between the two sides ... And, I was told, full of anti personal, truck, and tank mines ... Don't know if that was the truth though ... Our shack was ground level ... The East Germans had towers that seemed to be made of cement pipes, around ten foot wide, stacked sections, to rise some thirty foot, with a larger section on top... They stood inside and viewed through windows at everything in view ... From inside our shack, we had a huge binoculars on a stand ... I could watch them as they watched us ... One time I waved at an East German border guard, as we were each viewing with binoculars at each other ... I could see him look left, then right first, then he returned a slight wave back to me ... While on a driving duty, along the border, One little 'town' of sorts on their side, had ohump-pah (sorry for the spelling) music playing, as if there was some party... However, the only person I saw was a guy on a motorcycle, who would traverse from one end, to the other, of the 'town'... And then, repeated that move after several minutes ... The alleged 'party' was fake ... And the MC guy was a border guard ... There was, I seem to recall, two or three series of signs to warn if the border ... One, I think, was about three KM from the border... Another about one KM away warned of No Tracked Vehicles beyond that point ... Then, the cement stripped poles that marked the border... And then, the double border fences ... I was in M60-A1 main battle tanks ... In the 2/2 Armored Calvary Regiment, H Co. ... Early '72 through Dec. '74 ... We also trained at a couple NATO facilities (spelling?) Hornfelds and Grafenvore (yikes on the spelling) ... Started out as loader, then driver, then as Spc 4 gunner in my final year, got the best score of the company... Beating the Lt, CO, and the rest ... Ha ha ... First Sgt. send us four home in a Huey, gave us the weekend off, a case of German bier each, and each a painted bier Stine with the unit logo, our name, date, and yes, I still proudly display it behind glass, in a case ...
