It brought back alot of memories. I was stationed at the FSB from Feb 1977 to Feb 1979. I found your site by gooling Al Mulinos in Berlin. Isn't the internet amazing. My family is planning a trip to Berlin and I wanted to see if Al Mulinos was still open. I love their Italian onion soup. I am also a native of Indy. I miss the culture and especially the Museum of Art. I love your posting on Andrews Berlin. It brought back alot of memories. I was stationed at the FSB from Feb 1977 to Feb 1979.

The first morning after joining the unit reassigned itself to Berlin in July 1945. Our first night in Lichterfelde West we billeted in what had been the barracks of the SS. Included where we were was a large warehouse, full of SS uniforms, emblems and equipment. In the courtyard the spoils of combat were still visible - like machine guns, panzerfausts and weapons in general. We then we were relacated a short distance easterly in Lichterfelde West. Without any specific recollections to tell you, we left Berlin in November 1945 and relocated in Erlangen, in southern Germany. My further experiences involved serving through to 1948 with the U.S. Zone Constabulary. Enough said. My last year was spent at Ft Dix, NJ as training cadre. Then I went home in 1949.
