1st Battalion 52nd Infantry Regiment (Bamberg Germany)

1st Battalion 52nd Infantry (Cold War)

The age of everything in Bamberg and in Germany is one of the things that struck me as well.  I can still remember sitting down at a guest house and drinking a beer that they had been brewing for 300 years, and the USA for not even 200 years old in 1971.  Just blew my mind.  But I fell in love with the old buildings and the history (excluding 1933-1945).

I was part of Headquarters Company 1/52 when they organized and activated the Combat Support Company.  The idea was to to take all the combat support platoons in HHQ and make them a new company which could be assigned to run assignments on their own, but mostly to be used to support the Infantry Companies in the battalion.  I was in the Anti-tank (TOW-missile) platoon).
