I would like to see some pictures of McKee Barracks in Crailsheim, Germany. I was stationed there many years ago and lost all of my phoyos in a fire afterwards
Located your site. Brings back memories of US Constab Days. Have sent this to Ms Irene Moore web Editor of the US Constabulary. net.Thought she might want add this as a link.
I am sorry I can not help with Illesheim pictures but, as of today, Stork Barracks is listed still as an active installation - therefore photos are not allowed.
This site is dedicated only to inactive kaserne in Germany.

To:Sgt E5 Marv Flowers I was at Illesheim Storck Barracks the same time you were. Would like to talk to you about old times. I was in 35th armor with you.
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.

Spam protection notice
Dear Friends,
I would kindly ask each of you to think twice before including your e-mail address in the comments you post.
In case you do that, I take it as an acknowledgement that you understand your e-mail address could be picked-up by spam generating robots and used for uncontrolled purposes.
Unfortunately, the volume of messages including e-mail address became too high for me to request a personal acknowledgement for each and every of them.
Starting March, 25th 2014, I will assume you understand the risks and I will be publishing every valid message as submitted for review by the person posting it.
I hope you understand this change in the "policy" of this site.
Thank you for your understanding and looking forward to see you around !

Dear Readers,
Lots of things happening around these days... Some of the former housing areas are now converted to new role.
I promise to come back soon with a couple of photos I took since my last updates and I hope those will be a nice surprise to all of you...
And... don't forget: I hope you enjoyed your visit on Forgotten Memories and I am looking forward to seeing you back soon !

Dear Readers,
I would first like to thank all of you for sharing your opinion on posts in this blog. The almost 90 votes on my latest poll show me that this means something for you - and I really appreciate that ! I'm not what's called 'professional blogger'... I'm just doing it for you and whoever comes here over and over again, it means to me it makes sense. I keep being concerned about the spam risks associated with (some of) your messages, therefore I kindly ask you to avoid including your e-mail addresses in your posts. I'm against changing rules mid-game, so I will not do it without your full and total support. Every time I receive a comment including an e-mail address, I will keep sending a confirmation mail to that e-mail address, explaining the risks you are exposing to and asking for your explicit acknowledgment before publishing it.
As many of those mails (some of which may contain really interesting info for the other of you reading this blog) remain unanswered (that means to me that most of you learned the rule on how to keep spam away), please let me know if you would mind if I might start posting some of the posts while still "anonymizing" the e-mail address (i.e. keeping username but hiding domain info - or whatever option you think would be acceptable...).
I would really appreciate your feed-back before any changes here...
Thank you !
And... don't forget: I hope you enjoyed your visit on Forgotten Memories and I am looking forward to seeing you back soon !

Dear Readers,
I would first like to thank all of you for sharing your opinion on posts in this blog. Those help me understanding better what is interesting for you.
I also opened a new poll, which I invite you to vote !
In the last couple of months I tried to visit new places (Bad Kreuznach, Wuerzburg, Dexheim) and I hope the photos I published brought you some nice memories.
I still did not give up the plan to take a tour of deactivated installations in Stuttgart area, but I'm waiting for your suggestions.
Given that youtube became extremely polluted with garbage not related to advertised keywords, I decided to remove the section from the blog. I am searching an alternative way to broadcast to you relevant videos.
I hope you enjoyed your visit on Forgotten Memories and I am looking forward to seeing you back soon !

Dear Readers,
First note to you in 2011 - and I will have to admit I didn't realize it's been so long since the last one.
As always, I appreciate all your comments - they make me feel there is a sense in what I am trying to put together.
As a side note, I would advise all of you to think twice before including your e-mail addresses in the comments you submit. I will continue constantly to ask you to specifically confirm if you indeed want to have the e-mail address published before doing so, as the spam generators are just waiting for this opportunity.
I am still planning to visit to Stuttgart area. Hopefully soon. Any suggestions are more than welcome !
I wish all of you to be able to visit Germany in the near future and - for those of you who will not be able to make it - I will try to continue sending back a small part of it through my pictures.
I hope you enjoyed your visit on Forgotten Memories and I am looking forward to hearing back from you soon !
What new locations would you like to see on "Forgotten Memories" (de-activated locations only) ? - Poll closing Jul, 15, 2011

I didn't see any mention of the 11th Airborne Division.
I would like to see some pics of Ansbach and Bleidorn Kaseren...I was there in 1955-56
I am afraid both locations you would like to see pictures fall under the military rules and regulations and photos are not allowed.
Great Website,
however nothing new lately???
Thank you for your comment. Apologize for the lack of new photos. I will get back with updates in the near future.
