Hey Fellows, thanks to all of you for the feedback. I have another several minuted of footage (Camp Gates, the town of Bindlach and The Rock) which I will try to compress and upload. I took the videos in too-high of a quality and they exceed the posting limit. I need to find a webpage that shows me how to do that!
Cheer from Zürich,
John

When I saw this video, I was heart broken to see how the chow-hall looked. I remember it just like it was yesterday

I remember the days before heading back to Bindlach when we would get someone going back early to stock the wall lockers with beer and booze. I rememeber Danny Cooper and I getting drunk on white russians!!

John,
Thankyou very much for the trip down memory lane! Kinda sad. In 4 years I spent alot of time at that Camp. It was a special place and we where always pumped going up I remember and ready to leave after a week. It should have been kept as memorial. Better money spent there than on WALL STREET.
Thanks Again
Joe
