My old barracks is at 7:57 the 588th Maint CO, 19th Maint BN. Its the building on the right. The one to the left is the old dispensary. The chow hall is after this shot, driving down the ally to the other turn. To the right was motor pool, and shops. Thanks for the memories.

Okay. My first tour in Germany I was first assigned to HHC V Coscom in Frankfurt. I was there for approx. a week, or so, before receiving orders to Pendleton Barracks, 24th S&S Co., 19th Maint. BN. I arrived there in early 1974 and stayed there before receiving orders in Oct. '74 for our detachment to move down to the Depot and be assigned to the U.S. Military Community Activity, Giessen, working at the old Ration Breakdown Point. I stayed there until Nov. '76 then rotated back to the states. If you were in the 588th, then you were directly across (east of us) the little street from me. The dispensary and the mess hall were behind our barracks. Your barracks were closest to the old main PX and the old Commissary. The old main gate and guard shack was between us just south of both our barracks. You ever pull guard duty there? Well, those are just some of my memories of Pendleton Barracks. It was interesting and rewarding duty there. I'll always love Giessen........and Germany. Take care, Don. John
