Sheinberg closing presents problem of Central site for training support by Ron Mckinney staff writer Sheinberg West Germany a the closing of the Sheinberg military Community May Force service members to spend extra hours travelling to take vital military tests or to have their pictures made. The possibility of the longer drives is raised by a three option plan aimed at restructuring a Heinberg a training support division because the Post will close oct. I. A if an individual is on the Road for a couple of hours to another testing Center he would not be in the same mindset As he would be if he drove 15 or 20 minutes and took his test while he was still fresh a said William Andrae who Heads the division. The seven employee office at Sheinberg 10 Miles West of Duisburg near the dutch Border supports 6,933 military personnel assigned at 107 outlying units in Northern West Germany Andrae said. Service members travel to Sheinberg to take military exams such As the skill qualification test that affect their chances of promotion. Andrae said the division administers up to 130 skill qualification tests and other army exams each month. Service members also journey to the Post to have their pictures taken for the department of the army identification cards and passports.

The restructuring plan is being considered by col. Stanley Kullman the 21st theater army area come assistant chief of staff for Security plans and operations. Kullman can choose from three options a the division would close and the Reinbergs amps map training equipment at least one photographer and two clerks would Transfer to Schinnen in the Netherlands. Schinnen is about 75 Miles Southwest of Sheinberg. A the Sheinberg and Schinnen divisions would close and a centrally located division would open possibly at monchengladbach 25 Miles South of Sheinberg. A the Sheinberg division would be Cut from seven employees to five and it would be moved possibly to monchengladbach. Kullman who expects to make a decision next week said he is leaning toward the first option. If it is adopted service members would have to travel to the nearest training support divisions at Schinnen Giessen or Bremerhaven to take military tests and to receive training support. Andrae said the first option would result in lost Man hours during the longer trips. It would also mean increased costs for vehicle maintenance and fuel. As an example of the extra Burden Andrae pointed to service members assigned to the 26th . Army Field arty i det stationed near Paderborn West Germany. They already drive 250 Miles on a round trip to Sheinberg. Driving to Schinnen would add 150 Miles to the i trip. A my main concern is for the soldiers i in the area that they do receive the proper support and that they done to have to drive 400 Miles on a Given Day to receive that support a Andrae said. That possibility also bothers sgt.
