Try it you la like in Donna a Lee Anbach Germany airman thanks Friendly foreign hosts i read the stars and stripes every Day and have taken a keen interest in the letters Page of the paper. I like to read about other servicemen s feelings and about issues which affect All of us stationed in Europe. Recently there were a couple of letters written by German citizens who Felt thai they were not seen in the right Light by american servicemen. The people expressed their appreciation and love for the servicemen and seemed distraught by the negative letters written by gis about germans. I was very deeply touched by these letters and fell compelled to write. I was on temporary duty in Frankfurt and Wiesbaden earlier this year and i approached the local communities with some apprehension. In was t very Long before i found out just How Friendly and hospitable the German people Are. I went shopping in the local areas and was greeted by people who were sincerely concerned with helping me find what i needed. Many German people i met in my travels wanted to know As much about me As i did about them this made for hours of enjoyable conversation i was deeply touched when an elderly couple came up to me on a sidewalk Shook my hand and thanked me for my service to Germany. They then presented me with a Small bouquet of Flowers i would gladly accept a tour in Germany i feel right at Home in that country. I am stationed on the Island of Crete and feel very Welcome Here also. The greek people have made my wife Annette and me feel very comfortable Here. I must say thank you to All our Rcck friends.
