Hohenfels, Germany

Some images from Hohenfels, a small town in Upper Palatinate, Bavaria, Germany. It is also home to the Combat Maneuver Training Center (CMTC) of the United States Army.

Some sights to see are the castle ruins in Hohenfels and the beautiful St. Ullrich Church. Hohenfels is a small but beautiful town where you can experience lovely nature around. Here are some images from Hohenfels.

I lived on military base in Hohenfels. What prompted you to live here as a civilian.I did love the terrain of the Hohenfels area, that helped me survive my 1 1/2 years as a draftee.

No, I'm not in Hohenfels anymore. I live in Los Angeles. I like it here, I would like to return back to Europe. The last time I visited Europe was in December 2001. Perhaps we can meet if I visit Germany in 2010. I was in Hohenfels in 1969 and left February 1971.I am civilian and work for the state of California, as Deputy Labor Commissioner, I investigate and make rulings on retaliation concerning wrongful termination. This job is long ways from being a Hawk Missle Launcher Crewman which I did in Hohenfels. I understand the base I worked on is obsolete, it became a United Nations fake compound for war game practice.
