My wife just skype called me from Germany. Her tour is spending the night in Erfurt! I told her to look for spare parts but she just laughed. I didn't have enough leave time to go with her on this trip. She is traveling with some church friends on her first trip to Deutschland. I will probably end up with one of those T-shirts that has written on it "someone who loves me went to Germany and all I got was this T-shirt"

I would have gone with her. I'm retired, enjoyed my time in Bavaria.

When I was was staying at Lager Lechfeld, I took the train from Kauffering to Munchen. We got off and walked to the big mall/plaza and I saw the storefront sign "Waffen Bavaria". I knew that was where I wanted to be, and sure enough they had stuff I wanted. I was dickering for a C96 Schnellfeuer [$750 USD] when the squadron Intel officer walked in...he took one look at me with my wallet out and the 712 on the counter and said "No!"...

So what was HE doing in the gun store? ... And what did he bring home with him AFTER YOU LEFT THE STORE?
