96th Transportation Company
 
(Source: Email from Walt Bischoff, 96th Trans Co, 1963-64)
I was stationed at Panzer Kaserne (Böblingen) from May 1963 till Sept 1964 and was with the 96th Trans Co (Heavy Truck). Do you or anyone you know of have any pictures of the old M-123 "DRAGONWAGON" along with the M-172 trailer? I had quite a few but lost them in a fire a few years back. Since then I've been going nuts trying to locate someone who may have some of these pics.

Also there was an Ordnance Co at Panzer where I used to take my tractor for repair when our mechanics couldn't handle the job. I forget which Co. it was.

Our mission was to haul M-60 tanks and other tracked vehicles for armored divisions to the lovely sites as Wildflecken, Hohenfels and Grafenwoehr just to name a few. I also was a member of the 29th Trans Bn Drill Team where we put shows on at various Air Force bases and also civilian arenas. Anyone who was at Panzer has to remember the hole in the fence which led us to Mom's gasthaus. Many times the MP's tried to grab us but never could. If anyone out there remembers these great times I would love to hear from them. These were probably the best times of my life.

Well it was great seeing some of the pics on your site and would like to thank you for any help you can give me with this search.
