Thanks for your time. A school friend was there too. He was part of the unit police. His name is Roger Parrish. A lot of people were there in those years so I don't expect you to remember any one person but I would like to know you. If you do remember any one please let me know.

My name is Jess Keopke,
I was stationed at the Rheinland Kaserne in Ettlingen in 1964. I was with the 502nd Engineer Floating Bridge company, and I am thrilled to find these pictures of the kaserne. I was transferred from the 502nd to the 55th Engineer Panel bridge company at Smiley Barracks in Karlsruhe after making SGT E5, and stayed at Smiley until I left Germany in late 1967.
