  • Prior to the arrival of the American Army in May 1945 the Kasserne had been known as the Junker Schule. It was in a phrase the Waffen SS officers Candidate Academy.
  • Flint Kaserne was one of the most highly regarded duty assignments in the entire Army. It was a beautiful post in a the beautiful foothills of the Alps, and our relationship with the locals was second to none. I was lucky to have served there in the early 80's.
