I was at Rothwesten from 1958 to 1960 (approximately). Sent there as an 058 Morse Intercept and became the Officer Records Clerk. Classic example of US Army waste of money. Loved Germany and have been back a number of time.
Was at Rothwesten with 184th from 10/60 to 2/63. Couldn't have asked for a better assignment. Great location and great bunch of guys. Met and married my wife of 21 years in Kassel.

Hello, I am looking for my grandfather. He is said to have been stationed in Rothwesten in the 1960s. Unfortunately, I have very little information. His name is said to have been Henry Ford or Willi/Willy Ford, these could also be nicknames. he is said to have been sent to Vietnam where he fell. Unfortunately, I don't know if all of this is true, so I'm looking for someone who knew this soldier, or where I could get information, I would also be interested in where the soldiers in Kassel spent their free time, please contact us by email, thank you very much
