Wow! I am so glad that I stumbled upon your site. This brought back so many memories. My days in the chapel and my nights spent on the back side gate. I wish their pictures of the chow hall or the barracks of the 501st.

This will always be the home of the 12th Eng. Bn. They were stationed there longer than any unit in the US Army, Myself from 1978-1985 and the 1988-1990

The picture of the Chapel brings back great memories of Spring mornings and all the flowers and trees blooming. The Chaplain's assistant would ring the church bell for the Catholic and Protestant Services.

This is a great find. I was stationed in Dexheim from 1975 until 1979. I can still recall the 3 to 5 mile run through the beet fields each morning for PT. I was a Combat Engineer Track Vehicle crew member and a mobile assault bridge operator during my enlistment. I married a local girl from Oppenheim. We lived in a little apartment nest to the slaughter house in NeirsteinI can almost taste the Schnitzel and liebfraumilch. I remember the Chapel well, I got to do special duty as the Chaplin’s assistant for a time. I also remember the front gate, I was assigned to drive the Van that would drop off and pick up the enlisted men in town. It’s really hard to look at these photos and not get emotional I had so many really great memories there. It is also sad to see it in the over grown stat it’s in.

Information needed...

Whoever can help with history of Camp Eschborn, please add your memories of the place as it used to be in the 70's through 90's.
