Of Nat an explanation on fuel Coupon Purchase regulations i am writing in reference to the usar eur Reg ulalious at cafes filling station sin Europe. I have had Many customers come into the station and gel very upset when asked for proper registration and id due to the fact that in the past they were not asked for their registration and id. They get mad and very upset at the employee and some times Ever harass them. It is a Ful hard to be Nice to someone who is Yelling and screaming in your face. Accusing you of causing problems for everyone. We arc Only trying to do our jobs properly and correctly. Would you please print the proper Usa eur regulations for purchasing Gas or i Csc at an cafes filling station whether using Cash or coupons a very hard working employee Hanan Germany specialist Public affairs office he cafes Europe replies if those customers Here forced to Pur Chase Gas on the Economy for a Thile i m quite sure their rude attitude would improve the next time they pulled up loan cafes Gas pump. There s no reason anyone should harass you for simply doing your Job. Want to quote hem chapter and terse next time  regulation 600-17 and i is a be regulation 147-10 clearly state the policies and procedures governing Sale and dispensing of tax free motor fuel products in the Federal Republic and West Berlin. What s required authorized customers stationed in Germany or West Berlin null present a valid id card and Pov registration certificate when purchasing with either pol coupons or Gas for Cash at cafes outlets. Why to prevent abuse of a system designed for the Benefit and to assure German customs authorities that we sell Only to authorized customers. Do customs authorities Monitor our Gas sales Yon Bel authorized customers stationed else where in Europe and travelling in Germany or West Berlin on leave or temporary duty try Are authorized to Purchase tax free pol Coupon. These customers must also present a letter of authorization in German and English signed by their local commander when buying Gas. That s in addition to their id card Pov registration and try or leave orders. The letter in t required if the try orders authorize use of a Pov or Natal ear. It s unfortunate some customers have to he insensitive to the restrictions placed of while offering this service especially whet you consider the significant savings we provide them. Editor s note master sgt. Why the Sav Bruce e. Zielsdorf customer relations Designe l w. That great old Hoagie lift at the same great Price recently i walked into the Hoagie lift at this Concession. A periodic increase in cheese products for Standard Hoagie the Frankfurt shopping Center prepared to prices is certainly acceptable but a sudden ingredients in a step he sincerely Belt t t t r Purchase my favorite Sandwich for lunch when i received quite a Shock. On my previous visits the Sandwich i usually buy was priced at $1.50 half Sand wich and $3 whole. The most expensive Sandwich on the menu was priced at $2 80 half and $5.60 whole. On this visit every Sandwich on the menu the same menu As before was priced at $2.80 half and ss.60 whole. This rep resents a nearly 100 percent increase in the Price of the Sandwich i usually buy. How can this happen surely the pre Vious prices were High enough to operate Thi prices i near doubling of Price is beyond explanation. However if the responsible party would like to try to explain this i am will ing to listen. John c. Dykes Frankfurt editor s not. Cant. Mark a. Desich chief. Customer relations Branch Public affairs office a cafes Europe replies Here s what happened to the Hoagie prices. In the fall of 1984, the we Ottea ing management substituted locally pro cured German gourmet Quality neat Aad Chees lift ingredient believed Wedil Benefit the Patron. However he failed to consider the economic Impact of that decision. By Early 1985, he was losing Money. Attempting to bring the Hoagie lift Back into the Black he raised the Price of the gourmet sandwiches instead of culling costs by returning to Standard ingredients. Thanks to your beads up the Hoagie lift is Back to Standard ingredients and prices. Thes parents missed Good open House what if they gave a party and nobody came the staff at general . Arnold High school in Wiesbaden must feel this Way once each school year when the annual open House is conducted for the Benefit of parents interested Community members and school staff. When the final attendance is tallied for this year s Parent night on 10 september this Slaff member will be surprised if 15 percent of the More than 900 students at our school were represented by parents. Ironically this was one of the Best turnouts i have seen in my years of teaching at this school. The poor attn dance was t for a Lack of publicity. The Media Blitz by our school s administration extended from theater marquees to newspapers radio and even fliers which were distributed at school for delivery to the family of every student. One can t do much better than a personal invitation a sincere thank you is in order and extended to the parents who attended who provided refreshments and who have done so much to support our students staff and activities we love and appreciate All you do. Thank you also to the 13 sets of parents out of a possible 110 who were Able to visit health classes throughout the eve Ning. It was truly a pleasure meeting you. To those who had something better to do i Hope it was much More important than your son s or daughter s education. Susan Green Kim Frei general . Arnold High school Wiesbaden Germany warning about car documents i Hope to warn others and save them the trouble i am having. I bought a 1985 Volkswagen Van in february 1985.

Herzog Kaawach Germany should not complain the senior airman who recently wrote is right. We should not selfishly complain of no a joints for our cars. We arc overseas we should not expect everything we have in the states. As far As Ftp foreign duty pay he is slightly mistaken. We serving Here in Ger Many do not receive such gratuities.
