In Worms, I will be returning to where I was stationed (Taukkunen Barracks) in 1974 to 1976. We will also be staying in a hotel that has been converted from barracks. Many of the buildings were still standing and looked close to what they did when I was stationed there. There were some buildings which have been removed. Many have been repurposed like the hotel we were staying in. I also went to where I lived in military housing, but many things have changed there. More buildings and the one I lived in had been totally redone. I was able to try Eichbaum beer again. We will also take in the sites around Worms. We also are using this location as our base for trips along the Rhine River and to Schwetzingen/Heidelberg.
I will have to say that it brought back many memories, but also lots have changed so it was very mixed feelings. It had been over 45 years since I was last there.

I was there 1991-93. I was an Army x-ray tech with the 13th Medical Detachment . We were deactivated in 1993. What a great community we were.

Thank you for this nice video Mr. Kurtzman. My father was also stationed at Taukkunen Barracks in the late 50's.

I lived in Worms from 76 - 78 as a kid in Thomas Jefferson Village. This vid brough back some nice memories. I do think where you marked TJV is close but it isn't quite on the mark. It started in the very bottom of the left corner of the map you displayed, but most of it isn't visible.

for someone who was born and raised in worms, it's cool to see and hear stories like yours..since i was born in 93, a lot of things have changed in worms. the buildings that used to be the barracks were completely demolished (their overall conditition was pretty bad & i think asbestos was also a huge problem) and had been replaced by residential buildings. thanks for sharing your story and memories! PS: i was referring to the buildings that weren't shown in this video, think they were part of thomas jefferson village

In the building on the right coming in the gate, Mp's were in the building to the left, my room was in the 3rd (top) floor nearest the gate, now a hotel. We were near center on the Parade field. Late 1972 to 74. We were a mobile radio crew attached to Tascom Hq, we worked in 2 deuce and half trucks back to back next to the com center.

I arrived at Taukkunen Barracks June 1974 and worked in DCSLOG Comsec 5th signal command. First in the CG building, then across the street in Building 5816 1st floor. I enjoyed my time there and took advantage of all around Worms and Germany.

Mike, I lived there 73-74, and am going back to visit June 2024. Do you have any idea how to get to TJV (Thomas Jefferson Village) housing? Thanks!

@Explor5252 2 месяца назад

It is not far from Taukkunen barracks, you take the tunnel under the tracks which can be seen from barracks now a hotel. Once you go thru the tunnel it is on the left.
