Landstuhl, Germany

Super photo spread! I was assigned to the 2nd GH Jan. 71-Jul. 77 and lived in Mittlebrunn the entire time. Initially I worked "7B-SICU", then WM, 14CD (Detox) and last 2 1/2 years as NCOIC, Pulmonary-9C. Returned to Heidelberg (7th MEDCOM) Apr. 83-July 87, although I lived in Kaiserslautern (right by the Farmer's Market-few blocks down from the Bahnhof). My son Daniel was born at the 2nd GH, 22 May 76 and daughter Monica Kate was born there 2 June 87. My years in Germany, especially Landstuhl were some of the best years of my 30+ year career in the Army. Spent most of my stateside time at Fort Bragg, retiring as the CSM, 44th Medical Brigade (Airborne) in 1996. I now serve as the Director, Verterans Programs, The Army Historical Foundation, 2425 Wilson Blvd., Arlington, VA 22201. Would love to hear from anyone that served at the 2nd GH. Email me at: michael.munn@armyhistory.org or mwmunn@earthlink.net PS: Hey "Mokey"!

Hi Jerry, this is really nice, I hope you and Betty are doing fine. Guess what? Chuck Statham is still at Landstuhl, running what is left of the 10th Med Lab. To everybody else, I was born and raised in Landstuhl and still live in the area. The Italian Restaurant at Kaiserstrasse 1 was called Taormina and the owners name is Filippo and his wife Giovanna. They are not at the same address anymore, but on the other side of the street, a little further down on the right toward the center of town. His new place is beautiful and anyone coming into town, you need to go there to eat, it is the best Italian place in the entire Landstuhl/Kaiserslautern area. Anyone wanting to visit or coming in to work in the area, I am working at the Vogelweh Housing Office, therefore, do not hesitate to contact or ask for me, even for short-term furnished places. I will help you to find suitable rentals in this area. I do have a second job and work for Remax in Germany but only sell houses with them. It would be nice to hear from people who knew me when they were in this area. My email address is internatbusiness@yahoo.com

Hi, this is a message from Doris Drewlow, I used to work at the Patient Administration Office and then at 10th Medical Laboratory. Hi Jerry Goularte, how is Betty?, guess what?, Chuck Statham is still here and runs what is left of the 10th Med Lab. To everybody else, Landstuhl is my hometown and I still live in this area. I am working at the Vogelweh (Ramstein Air Base Housing Office) and also for Re/max (but only sell houses there). Doris

My dad was stationed there... Air Force and I was born in Landstuhl, April 1960. Thank you for the memories.

Virginia Clark-Elerick		05-Jul-2008 02:26
I was born in the Landstuhl military hospital in 1983. This was the first time I saw pictures of my birthplace. I want to go visit sometime, maybe possibly live there. It looks wonderful and pleasant! Thank you for posting the pictures. Virginia Clark-Elerick elerick602@yahoo.com

This is great. Pictures great. I was in Tox. in USAREUR Med. Lab. Dec. 58 - Oct. 60. George Walton - what section? Mike - MP we were in the same barracks. John - Cook, I ran into Lazkowski on Reforeger '76. I did a thing on the USAREUR Med Lab site. I have been in contact with several people in the lab. I had a great time. Mis-spent youth. I was back in '80. People I had worked with (Germans) had retired or died. Lab pretty much the same. Love to hear from others from Med. Lab.

Jerry Goularte		28-Jun-2008 16:02
Thanks for a trip down memory lane. I was with 8th Evac 60-62 and 10th Med Lab 74-82. Landsthul and Ramstein provided a fantastic living environment.

Zack Watkins		23-Jun-2008 15:53
Got to Kindsback in January of 87...lived in the top of Da Toni's Italian resturant...He and Lisa were very nice people. I was a civi working in the HAWK and Patriot missile program at that time. I played guitar and bass guitar at TOM's in Einseidlorhof on Friday and Saturday nights and sometimes would get called to play on a military circuit band. I ended up getting married and my wife was the base commanders secretary at RamsteinAFB when we left in 92. My daughter was born in Landstuhl in 88..She now attends SMU on a Presidential Scholarship...I hope she gets to see her birthplace soon. If Nole Boado or Gill Kadena reads this give me and email. GREAT pics! These were truely the best 5 years of my life.

Shawn Cone		21-Jun-2008 19:57
I lived in the are and worked at the hospital from 2000-05. I have many great memories of my expeience there. I love it and miss it very much. That area has always felt like home to me. I hope to get back there someday.

philipp Gawenda		19-Jun-2008 21:43
Philipp Gawenda lived in Landstuhl (on the Atzel) for two years and another two in Ramstein between 74 and 78, ages (10 to 14). His first girlfriends were Sabine Schwamberger and then (I forgot her first name) Hirschfeld. Those were the best years of his life. The castle ruin was his playground from summer to white winters. His father was a German Airforce Colonel stationed at the airbase. He never found Franz von Sickingen's buried treasure.

Bruce Reinger		14-Jun-2008 22:49
Thanks much. The pictures were great. I was at LAMC in 1959-1960. Two of the best years of my life.

Jessica Figueroa		13-Jun-2008 02:42
HA! How crazy is that? When I went to apply for my passport 3 weeks ago, I looked at my Birth certificate. I was born in at the Landstuhl military hospital. This whole time I thought I was born in Karlsruhe. I am now 25 and can't wait to visit Landstuhl! These pics are amazing.

Guest		06-Jun-2008 22:46

guest		06-Jun-2008 16:28
Was stationed to the 8Evac Hosp. Generator Operator 66-67. Looking for info on any others.

Dee		02-Jun-2008 23:18
I am seriously thinking about trying to get a job at the hospital in the operating room as a civilian. Does anyone have any suggestions? Where to live? I would be alone so whould it be difficult to meet people and get involved in the community?Any info would be of great help.

Elva todd		02-Jun-2008 18:16
My husband was transferred to Landstuhl in l951 before the hospital was completed. It was the 320th General Hospital at that time. I joined him 6 months later and lived with my two daughter and him at Vogelsweih Housing which had just been completed. we were there when the Officers Club was built just behind the housing. In the beginning we did not have a commissary and had to go to a warehouse to get our basic food. He was supply officer (Warrant Officer) and our third daughter was born there. Many good friends and many great experiences. It was fun being among the first and living off the economy. Shopping in Kaiserslautern nearby was an experience. Elva todd

John Barr		31-May-2008 13:11
I was statione at Ramstein from 1962-1965, in the Air Police squadron. I worked the town patrol with the MP Company from Kaiserslautern. The town is still as beautiful as I remember, they always kept the city clean and vibrant. Such a wonder ful memory, I would love to see it again. Thanks for your hard wrok in doing this.

Guest		30-May-2008 14:49
I was stationed at 2nd General Hospital from 1961 to 1963....worked in the hospital Admissions office....it was one of the best times of my life...traveled all over Europe..made many friends. Anyone stationed during that time..pls contact me at WCS1942@aol.com. Walt Scarborough

mike		27-May-2008 19:28
I was born in landstuhl in August of 62. these are the first pics that i have seen since I was a kinder. Danke!

landstuhlbandb.info		27-May-2008 11:02
I avoid any contractual agreement respecting housing or utilities. Properties offered outside the housing office, generally don't meet the requirements of the JTFR housing allowance and are not reimbursable for contract, active or reserve renters. They are good at getting default judgments, which become known at the most inoppertune times. Another favorite is haveing the utilities for the Apt, listed in your name only. Most generally the renter ends up paying for the entire utility bill of the household...not just their apt. Don't sign a lease unless it has a military/contractor clause and never more than 6 months. Be sure utilities are included in every rental. You will notice about a 350 euro increase in your obligations if they are not.

Guest		27-May-2008 05:57
i was born there in 1974 at the US Military Hospital- my grandparents were stationed there and that's where my parents met their senior year in high school- moved to California when I was 1 year old

Ralph Madhosingh		25-May-2008 21:23
I worked at the 10th Medical Laboratory from December '97 to May '98 when I left for the 97th Army Hospital in Frankfut. I met my wife in the cafiteria at the 2nd General. She was a WAC working as a transcriber.

Al		25-May-2008 20:58
Pauline, I was born in Landstuhl in 1973 as my dad was stationed there. I moved back to the states when I was 4 years old. I would luv to hear about the area and what to look for if I ever go visit my birth place. Thanks, Al

James		25-May-2008 00:20
great photos of Landstuhl. I was stationed at 2nd General from 65-67 and am going back for a look-see for the first time since I left. Taking the train from Paris on June 21, 2008 just for the day and hope the building I lived in is still there. I'm having some anxiety about whether I can be allowed on the base but since it's a hospital I guess I can. I would love it if someone who lives there now can show me around for a few hours on that saturday. In any event, it will be an adventure just go back after 41 years.

Roxanne		21-May-2008 12:33
hello everyone!!! I have lived in the Landstuhl area/Germany from '96 to '08. It is great place to live, and I know I will miss it like crazy. With the Euro/Dollar exchange rate though it is an expensive place to live, so watch out how you spend your money. Many sightseeing in that area, and you can travel to other countries surrounding Germany. Great opportunity to live there!!!! Viel Spass in Deutschland!!!

Guest		18-May-2008 00:07
I may be taking a job at the hospital in landstuhl and wanted to know about the cost of living there. if anyone knows, please email me at ousmips@yahoo.com. thank you very much.

Ellen Costigan		16-May-2008 13:46
My husband was with NATO in Oslo in the late 80s. I had the opportunity to visit Landstuhl a number of times, Ramstein, the Medical Facility, K-town for shopping, Harry's which I understand is no longer there. I googled Landstuhl in order to be sure I was spelling it correctly. The reason I was looking for it is that I have a home-based business that is currently doing business in Germany and I'm looking for folks who want to improve their level of wellness as well as secure their financial future. I represent a company called Reliv, www.reliv.com. If you are interested in hearing more email me at relivpensacola@hotmail.com. Reliv is 20 years old and I have been associated with them for over 16 years. It's the best job I've ever had!

I was stationed in Landstuhl from Dec. '51 til Dec. '53.I am 76 years old and would love to go back. So much has changed in 55 years. Is the big parade ground and ball field still there? I played a lot of soft ball there.

Guest		30-Apr-2008 04:59

Marilyn		28-Apr-2008 03:14
Marilyn Pauline,do you or does anyone else remember Neu Gast Haus in Landstuhl? My husband was stationed at 2nd Gen Hosp from 71-72. He worked in the office doing hospital stats. We lived in the small town of Linden. Our landlady owned that Gast Haus,her husbandd name was Peter and she had a son Sigie. We were just talking about how fun it would be to go back and see Landstuhl again,I am sure it has changed alot.

Pauline Van Heest		25-Apr-2008 18:51
Mokey I was stationed in Landstuhl from 71-76. Was a syrg Tech but first worked in L&D for a couple of months then went to the Urology Clinic for almost 4 yrs,then finally made it to surgery. Got Married to Bill,endedup in MI where I still live today(no more Bill). It started as a two year tour for Women but I loved it so much that I extended for an extra 3 years one at a time. I'll never forget the area and some of the most beautiful countryside in the world. One of the best memories of my life,especially the cukoo bird I heard while walking through the woods one of my first days there. Thanks for sharing your pictures, I miss Landstuhl more than I will ever know.

Guest		18-Apr-2008 20:12
I was stationed at Landstuhl, 2d GH, from 75 to 77. I worked in PO&T and have many fond memories of the area. Beautiful location in SW Germany; if you are going to be stationed there, get out and see the Rhinefalz area south to the French border and east to Anweiler. sp4grove, I probably knew you as well but can't tell from your login name. My first name is Terry. After Landstuhl, I transferred to 763d Med in Muenchweiler, just south of Landstuhl.

Alex		18-Apr-2008 15:25
I'm 19 years old, living in Green Bay Wisconsin, but I was born in Landstuhl (1989). My dad was stationed there while in the U.S. Air Force. We moved back to the U.S. when I was about 1 year old. I really want to go back and visit sometime now that I'm a little older.

Christina		17-Apr-2008 20:14
I might be taking a job in Landstuhl- can anyone tell me about the cost of living? (rent, groceriest, utilities, etc)? It looks like such a charming place to live. Thank you!

I was assigned to 583rd Med C0 (AMB) at landsthul from 1983-1984 (18 months). Trying to locate old unit mates. I was back in Landsthul recently to take a walk down memory lane. It has changed a lot yet it is still a beautiful place. The building that housed 583rd Med Company has been totally renovated! Do any of you remember the road you had to take to drive from Landsthul to Vogelweh? It is still a two lane (one coming one going) and people still drive like its the autobahn. Anyone remember 40 Mark Strassa? If from the 583rd and you had to drive an Ambulance remember the hill coming down into town? What about the guy that overturned the ambulance coming down that hill? One thing I will always remember is the 1SG we use to call Drac(ula). Please contact me via email if anyone was assigned to 583rd the same time as I

Steve Wilkinson		02-Apr-2008 19:30
I was stationed at the 10th Med Lab, EHS from 77-80. Fantastic times there and I spent a lot of time up at the castle. Fond memories.

I was a military wife. Our last duty station was Landstuhl. We lived up on the hill in the military housing. We were there for four years and I loved it. This site brings back many memories. Thanks for the pictures and memories. We were there from 92' to 96' Such a beautiful place to live.

Tom		18-Mar-2008 19:35

Doug		15-Mar-2008 22:46
Does anyone remember the Playhouse Movie Theater on Post and the field next to it where the carnivals would set-up? I remember they always had a beer tent where I could find my folks. We would bum quarters from the soldiers so we could ride the bumper cars.

cas		15-Mar-2008 19:03

I was in Landstuhl as an Army Brat from 1959-1962 and have gotten in touch with six classmartes! What fun to see the pictures and remember the great times on the hill. Wonderful teachers, Mr. Hakim, Miss Dinwiddie, Miss Cooper and Capt. Sheridan's square dance club. My friends Dennis Markey, Allan Kennedy, Jayme Ballard, Jack Meyer and Judy Crandall. If you were there, please e-mail me. I lived there when it was LAMC. I reside in the Oklahoma City area. We get together every year.

josianne		04-Mar-2008 00:53
I am thinking of relocating and working at the hospital in Landstuhl. Can you tell me where to go to locate housing for my and my family. Should I ship my car there or is it easy and affordable to buy a car there?

David Burge		21-Feb-2008 18:25
Living overseas in Landstuhl was one of the best experiences in my early life. It gave me a broader appreciate of the world, something that my classmates back in the states seemed ignorant of. Prepared me for all of the international travel I have done as an adult. I was there '75-77 and knew Judy Shrake...hi Judy! She sat behind me in Mrs. Small's 8th grade math class at RJH. In the summer after 9th grade we hung out occasionally at the AYA in on post. Great foose-ball player. I remember enjoying walking through the German country side in numerous 10km Folksmarches with my Dad. Afterwards, a hot bratworst and beer to the sounds of a polka band. The Germans knew how to relax. Nothing like that around here in Houston.

M Guenther		19-Feb-2008 05:19
very nice. you've captured what a beautiful,scenic town Landstuhl must be. my great-grandfather grew up in Kindsbach and went to church at Sankt Andreas. was that red bricked church Sankt Andreas?

Curtis		15-Feb-2008 18:20
I worked at 2nd General Hospital in the Urology and then in the OR from 1972 until 1975. Had another tour from 1977 to 1980 at 2nd General. This was the highlights of my military career not only for me but for my family, Betty, Brian and Curt. After viewing your photos of Landstuhl, we all want to return one day. Curtis Altman

Brian		14-Feb-2008 17:56

My wife Dean'a and I were at Ramstein from 82-88 (4ATAF). We spend a great deal of our time in and around Landstulh, both shopping & eating, as well as at the Kino. One of the greatest places on the earth. To this day we are still Homesick for Landstuhl and that area of Germany. So many times we have wished we were still there. Beautiful town and wonderful people. And the food! Thanks for having this site with all the beautiful photos.

Alex		22-Jan-2008 17:39
I was born in Landstuhl in the Army Hospital as many of you were , and my mothers entire family consisting of 6 brothers, and sisters still live in and around Landstuhl. My Grandfather Edward Thum was the Mayor of Landstuhl in the early 1940's and my Grandmother passed away there recently. My Aunt Tilla, and Susie own the Hotel Rosehof there which I recommend highly to anyone if you are every there to visit. I travel there often, and truly consider it home and were my heart is...The pictures are some of the best I've seen.

Doug		21-Jan-2008 00:20
Great Pictures. Brings back memories. Can't believe some of the comments. I live in Landstuhl from 71 to 74, 5th, 6th and 7th grade. I don't remember Judy Shrake Donegon but we had to be in 6th grade together (there were only three classes- my teacher was Mrs Frey). Also spent most of my time in the "Valley" referenced by Wayne Oakley. Would love here more.

I was in Laundstuhl from 72 - 73 with the 6th matience batallion. Currently looking for anyone that was stationed there at that time. Please contact me at redneckwines@aol.com

Guest		11-Jan-2008 00:53
These photos are just beautiful. My husband and I will be stationed in Landstuhl in April and not a single person has told me anything negative about it. Everyone wishes they had stayed longer or wish to return. I am very excited about this PCS and so is my husband. I have already gone to the Kaiserslauternamerican.com website and saw some great houses and I have seen some government housing pictures online, I would rather go with renting off post for now. How can I find out more about the utilities, phone and cable companies there, do I have to wait until we get there? Thanks for the information on the ramstein relocation and the b and b.

Rill Runyan		10-Jan-2008 20:42
I was stationed in Landstuhl from 1964 ( arrived Chirstmas eve) until 6/66 and was attached to the 583 Med (Amb) Company. I have never been back although would like to return for a visit. I have alot of memories of this town and some of the locals there and Ramstein. These are the best pictures I have seen of it on the Internet. I still have some but are all b/w. Alot of fun reading the comments.

Shelly		10-Jan-2008 11:43
Wow,the pix are great and the comments are too! Really takes me back to a beautiful time in my life. I gave birth to my first child in Landstuhl hospital March 4th, 1974. My husband was stationed at Ramstein from '72-'76. Anybody remember Shuf's Schnitzel Haus? One of my favorite places to eat. Also, there was the Swiss Chalet Restaurant up on the hill...Great food by a blonde Italian..Many, many, happy memories. Loved the metal shutters in the windows; why don't we have those in the states? lol

Peder		07-Jan-2008 23:01
Stationed at Ramstien 93-96. such a sweet assignment. Miss Germany but don't miss the USAF. Biked up to that castle from Kapaun many times on the trails. Man I miss that.

Great pictures. I was stationed at Landstuhl from Jan 93 to Jan 95. It was absolutley the best two years of my life. I went back to Germany in 04 while on R and R from Iraq and spent 2 nights in Landstuhl. Now, I am back in Iraq and am planning my R and R in March and can surely see myself visiting Landstuhl once again.

I did OJT at Landstuhl in 77. I remember a lot of great people and good times. I also remember hiking up the mountain. It was great to see pictures of the place. Does anyone have a old map of the Hospital?

Barbara Kettenring-Catron		19-Dec-2007 04:28
I enjoyed the photos very much. My fathers ancestors came from Landstuhl to USA in 1772. His 8th Great-Grandfather was a council member of Landstuhl and Hans Jacob's son was Mayor of this town in the early 1700's. I can only imagine what the town looked like during their lives.

I was stationed at Ramstein as a base photo specialist from 1984-1986.....a neat little place, Landstuhl. I worked up in the medical buildings while a new photo lab was being built on Ramstein in 1985.......I noticed the dark room was an old shower facility, with old green tiling, which turned out to be a Hitler youth barracks during the Nazi era.

My name is Patrick, I grew up (11 of my first 13 years) in Germany and Venicia, Italy, including '62 - '68 in Landstuhl. I am now 53 years old, half German and own an Award Winning Texas Style BBQ business. I used to be fluent in German and Italian and expect the languages to come back in short order. My goal is to partner with a local person to open authentic Texas Style BBQ shacks in and/or around Landstuhl. My motivation is three fold; first and foremost is to offer a truly American food to our military, to share Texas style BBQ to Europeans and finally to return to where I was raised. If you or anyone you may know could help me in this endeavor I would very much appreciate it. What should my first steps be? I'll be arriving in Landstuhl Feb. 11th to check the waters Thank you in advance for any help.

Great photos. I was stationed at 2nd G from January 1976 to February 1979. Worked in Detox and lived in town behind the bahnhof. My husband and I had the opportunity to revisit in July 1997. Our daughter is going to visit soon (her first home was in Landstuhl) so these pictures will be great to show her. She was only 2 when she left and hasn't been back yet. Thanks a lot!

I was a patient at the hospital in 1959 after an airplane crash in Naples. As a guy with a long leg cast I saw very little of the surrounding area but remember a very kind family who sprung me just before I was air evaced back to the states and we spent an afternoon on the banks of the Rhine at Worms. The hospital was first rate and sure put me back together

Mike		23-Nov-2007 01:40

Hans I have never lived in Landstuhl, although I just spent a month there. I have now been to Landstuhl three times and have enjoyed my time on every visit.

Guest		22-Nov-2007 19:45
Hi Jayson, I've been living at Landstuhl since 1999 and I still like the place a lot. I like your photos as they show a lot of different aspects of this little town, form castle to "Kaufland"! ;-) Do you still live here at Landstuhl or have you moved back to the USA? Regards Hans (www.dreamstime.com/hansok_info)

Mike		18-Nov-2007 04:58
I was stationed at Landstuhl from Jan 1959, to July 1961. I was with the Military Police Det. I really enjoyed my tour there, was wondering if the MP unit is still operating? Hoping to get over there this year or next.

Diana Buhring		17-Nov-2007 02:29
Diana Duarte-Buhring I lived and worked in the hospital from 1978-1981 on the female surgery floor. I liked over Bakery Kroner and later moved on the hill in post housing. I loved it there and the pictures bring back many memories

I was stationed at Landstuhl from 75 to 77. I was an OR Tech at 2nd General in those days and lived on post. I have a brother who was stationed at Ramstein at the same time. Very fond memories and many good times to remember. All these years later I still think about Landstuhl at times.

Chuck		02-Nov-2007 10:36

Jim Heil		18-Oct-2007 09:24
I arrived at Landstuhl Nov. 52 and left April 56, Weiner Schnitzel was 10 DM and a bottle of beer was 1 DM. I understand prices have changed a bit! Really enjoyed your photos and would like more, any information would be greatly appreciated.

I was stationed in Lanstuhl in the late seventies, with the 583rd Med. Co. (AMB). Loved my time there, and these pics bring back alot of memories.

Judy Shrake Donegan		08-Oct-2007 14:34
I lived on Landstuhl Base from 1973 until 1978. My apartment was in view of the entrance to the 2nd General Hospital. I was 11 when we arrived and 15 when we left. I went to Landstuhl for 6th grade then Ramstein for 7th, 8th and 9th. I spent my sophmore year at Kaiserslautern American H.S. Anyone there during this time frame? I have been back since (my last trip was in 1994) and I felt like I had gone home. Your pictures are great! Judy

Danette		08-Oct-2007 02:27
Thank you for the photos! My husband and I were stationed there from 1986-1989. My son was born at LARMC. I just loved the place. A part of my heart will always belong there.

This place looks amazing!!! My dad was in the Air Force and so my family was stationed there in 1975; then I was born there in 1977. One year later were were stationed in Austin, TX in 1978, so I do not remember the place at all. Looks like a great place I should take my daughter to visit.

I hear the Baron was moved. Got extended during the cuban crisis. Got married there in 62 by the Bergermeister and the Catholic chaplin. Drank Parkbrau beer in the Nco Club for 10 cents a bottle. I worked in the 10th Med Lab. Enjoyed Landstuhl greatly. The pictures are great. It has changed.

Rob		13-Sep-2007 18:39
I too was stationed at Landstuhl, attached to the 10th med lab, in the early 80's. Sandi and I probably crossed paths at some time. Pictures are great but it all seems different somehow.

Nickie		13-Sep-2007 15:35
My father was stationed in Landstuhl for 4 years between 88-91. I love this town and can still hear the Westminster chimes in the village. I have plans on returning and showing my own children all the places I enjoyed there from the ice cream shops to the toy stores! I carry those memories close to me. Thank You for the lovely pictures.

sandi perdun		11-Sep-2007 11:57

Emily		01-Sep-2007 21:27
I lived in Landstuhl on the afb, as a child from 83-93. I forgot how lovely it really was. I remember the woods all around were filled with those strange pits that some say were made by bombs. I miss the quaint red rooves and the window boxes. I want to go back so badly!

Patricia		06-Aug-2007 02:35
These are beautiful pictures. I lived in Landstuhl in the early to mid-eighties and these bring back many memories. I wish you had photos of the highrises on the hills behind the town. Thanks.

Crystal		16-Jul-2007 13:29
Thanks for posting such great pictures. I'm moving there in two months. Nice to get a look at where I'm going.

Martin Thomas		19-Jun-2007 03:42
Pics are ok...I was there in 1982-83 in the 583rd medical company (ambulance). I liked the canaon balls on the castle walls. There are 2 canaon balls 1 white and one black. The balls have been eroded over time. Pictures of the banhoff?? Would be kool or the barricks of the med center. My pics were lost long ago.

Shondee		18-Jun-2007 18:45
I lived here with my family in the mid-eighties while my Dad was stationed at Ramstein AFB. I got to return in 1998 and was happy to see not much had changed. I love the pictures you took, they really reflect the town.

Marion		11-Jun-2007 01:47
The pictures are great! I was there from 1957 to 1960 and it did bring back memories of the town.

Jennifer		02-Jun-2007 00:15
Thank You so much for posting those photos. It is so pretty there. We lived there from "88" to "92" My dad was stationed at the army base and we lived like 2 miles away from the base. It is just like how I remember it. I always have wanted to go back. I keep telling my husband I am going to move our family there.

Brandon		02-Mar-2007 17:17
I used to live in Landstuhl back in the early to mid eighties with my family on the military base. I am going to come back to visit friends and family. Germany is the most beautiful place I have ever been to. I wish that where I live in new york was that picturesque.

Christina		25-Feb-2007 15:09
I lived there as a very young child, too young to remember. Thanks for posting pics of the city.
