Original Comment of Ron Daugherty:
Von: RON DAUGHERTY Gesendet:
Sonntag, 8. Mai 2011 An: usarmynellingen@hotmail.com Hello Billy: Thanks for your response. Caught your web site
and was delighted with the content. I was stationed there in the year 1954. We did
a lot of work on the M-47's and saw the arrival of the first helicopter
squadron which domiciled there. I have some photos from that time and will
send to you but first wanted to ascertain your correct e-mail address. If this gets through to you please reply and
I'll forward material. Ron Daugherty Billy Sounds like you enjoyed your time on the base
and living a good life in Nellingen. I have fond memories of the German people I
met during my brief time in Germany, particularly those in Nellingen who were
so hospitable to us. I used to frequently take the street car from
outside the base to Nellingen and have lunch or a few beers in the
Gasthouses. Could have been La Paloma but don't remember. At our shop on base the
cafeteria workers brought us good ham and cheese sandwiches on fresh baked
German bread daily which was great. On some weekends I would go by
train to Esslingen or Stuttgart to shop for cuckoo clocks or excellent German
cameras and equipment to send back to the states. I always had Wiener
Schnitzel at the Stuttgart train station when returning to Nellingen and the
Bratwurst late at night on the street in Stuttgart was always good after a
night of drinking beer. I was able to visit to Munich and Frankfurt
during my stay. Octoberfest in Munich was fantastic. Nightclubs in Frankfurt
were excellent. I'm now 78 and retired living in Florida with
my wife. I haven't had any contact with other soldiers I served with in
Nellingen. They may be gone now as some were older than me. Regards Ron Daugherty May 2011 |
