I am now in the process of writing the AFRC Berchtesgaden TIMELINE. In order to do this I need your help.
This is for anyone connected to AFRC at Berchtesgaden, Chiemsee, Garmisch and the Columbia Hotel in Munich. You could have been a civilian working there, member of the National Ski Patrol and/or Water Safety Patrol (Lifeguard), permanent party, dependent, military brat, etc.
Please send me a letter telling something about your time at AFRC, what you did, the period of time and anything else you think might be of interest. Also if you are looking for anyone special, their name.
If you have any photos you want published please send those to me as well along with names of the people in the photos and what the photo represents.
Once I have all this information I will format a letter with each and every letter and it will be sent to each of you.
Since many of us do not attend any of the annual gatherings this might be the answer to many questions.
I am looking for everybody........1946 until 1995. Military, family members, civilian employees, guests, etc.
Any comments and suggestions are welcome. Let's give this our all.
If you know of anyone that is not on the lists please get in touch with them and ask that they pass the information back to me.
So far I have had quite a few responses and with great information. Once this whole thing is put together I will release it. At the rate it is going I just might have something in the fall.
Please send any and all information to my Email address: james.carey@dfas.mil
Thanks
