I was a loaner and I stayed to my self. Most kids made fun of me in high school( well at this school). When I moved I was excepted for who I was and nothing less. Which was cool.

"Hi. My name is Stephanie Null. I just wanted to say that Baumholder High School was one of the most inspirational places I have ever been too. I certainly believe that only the best teachers were thrown into that school to teach us the values needed today. Now I am a junior at Bayside High School in Virginia Beach and must move one last time. I was promised to stay and graduate here, but moving is endless when you are an Army Bratt. I will always hold Baumholder in my heart. Including such teachers as Mr. Lundy, Mrs. Higgins, Mr. Stanford, and Mrs. Crowell. The names are endless, but these people I hold closest to me. I also was fortunate to meet you, Mr. Hartline, on many occasions. I was involved in one of the trips to London and the work program you helped out with when I went to school as a 7th and later on an 8th grader. I did lose touch with some very important teachers. Mrs Higgins and Mr. Lundy in particular and though they may not remember me I will always remember them. I hope that one day all those teachers who teach at BHS realize just how influential you all have been to me and many others. Thank you from the bottom of my heart." Stephanie Null

The fact that B-Town was small made it so much easier for personal growth, because I didn't have to compete with 1000+ students. While I was living in Baumholder, I met the people I knew I wanted to keep in my life. <You know who you are> I hope to find a place which will have the same characteristics B-Town did, but I doubt that will ever happen. By the way, if you've ever met me, be assured that I do think of you and the "reminiscing" I do, is the drive in my life - I will always cherish the people I met... After all, you are like family."

(Is there even a vague chance that I spelled any of that right?) I think the whole Advanced Biology class enjoyed a good laugh the time I cut ALL of the tongues out of our frog dissection specimens and gave them to the substitute teacher, Mrs. Miller. What ever happened to her? She was cool. Didn't she have a husband who was also a teacher named Bruce or Bob or Bill or something like that?
Graduation was a pretty good memory too! (June 1979) Nothing like leaving that oversized hell week (month, year, decade, whatever) known as High School totally behind! Whose idea was high school anyway? Somebody smack them HARD! LOL" Joyce (Wright) Goodman 1976-80

" Now that I have been gone from BHR for about 5 years, my entire perception of it has changed. I think that the longer I am gone the best memories seem to get better. I cherish the teachers that were there for me while I was in school at BHR and most of all those that have continued to be there for me now that I am gone. Who would have ever thought that Mr. Lundy would have actually taken time out of his busy schedule to sing at my wedding 4 years after I was in BHR. He is incredible. And who would have ever imagined that Mr. Hartline and his wife would be there for me on my wedding day too. Even Ms. Dominguez came to my wedding. She is the one who continually badgered me in high school to stop wearing my soccer jacket, pull my hair out of my face, and to quit laughing so much. Never in my life would I have dreamed that she would someday be sitting in a pew at my own wedding. I talk to people practically every day about their high school memories and none of them have had any teachers like the ones I had at BHR. Aside from the teachers, I still have to admit that my most memorable moments in BHR were those that related to soccer. i often wish that I could return to high school just so that I could relive those fabulous moments of the BHR girls soccer team led by Mr. Stanford. They were priceless. And I have the videos to prove it. Long live the purple hat!"

I made alot of mistakes in Germany and I screwed up more than most people and I've learned from some of those mistakes. I also wasn't a very likable person in Baumholder and always caused trouble but I can't change what happened. People always complained about how small Baumholder was but that is actually a good thing since you could just walk over to a friends house. Over here I find myself driving everywhere.

But I also remember those who treated me well, You are remembered fondly (Mike/Mark, Amy, Dione/Diane, Chris, Peter, Jim(We had some bad times, but most were good). For my experience in Baumholder - wouldn't trade it for anything.

As fond a memory as mom's beans and cornbread. The bread truck, I cannot find brotchen like that here in Colorado Springs. That ice cream truck with the more subtle sweetness in its goodies. Making the principal think I was doing drugs by mimicking Gene Simmons from "Kiss", I kept a jar of corn syrup with red food coloring in it in my locker to freak people out. I later caught myself on fire in the metal shop by the band room by trying to blow a flame like him too!! HAHAHAHA. I still remember my classmates stomping on me to put me out! When I lived there only KFC had a foothold, down at the bottom of Faulkenburg hill. Going to see movies on the weekend at the movie theatre across from the school.

"I played mostly by ear on the baritone horn. When I transferred to Fayetteville High in Spring of "57 the band director was very upset at auditions. I worked with Lavine in putting together Baumholder's section of the ERINNERUNGEN year book. The first year I was helper, the second year I was "editor" My college friends at Creighton University laughed when they saw my writing and heard about the "editorship" In football I learned to respect my body thanks to coach McCanna. I recall being uncoordinated, and shy. Each of the team members gave me experiences that seemed hard sometimes; but we gave to each other in a spirit of all for one and one for all. I doubt if I could remember enough details to adequately share my appreciation, especially my opposite at center, Chuck Sullivan. I've enjoyed telling about Pauline Duncan, counselor advising me to seek a blue collar job. I had dreamed of being a medical doctor since early childhood. She was right, it was hard but I got a BA, served in the Army after ROTC and after some bumps earned a MS in Counseling and am now retired from using that training in Vocational Rehabilitation Counseling. I loved Ruth McFarlin even after she married my favorite teacher Kenneth Hathaway. Since my retirement I've gotten into woodworking, and still use a couple of chisels that Mr. Lavine assisted me in purchasing. Belatedly, maybe Ms. Duncan was right. Making furniture feels good, almost as good as having done counseling. And, I'm trying to be brief, Baumholder was where I feel my adult life began, with all the good and rough things that happen to us as we emerge. I boarded at Kaiserslautern from the month we arrived in Baumholder until the Baumholder High was opened. I watched that lovely building go up through snow and mud. It continued to be a place of mud on the football field. Just today I got e-mail from Bob Richmond. I had decided to check in with the Kaiserslautern group. Even though I had not been able to go to a reunion, the only thread of contact I have had with Germany was with Rosalind(sp?) who had been coordinating the KHS gathering. My respect is extended to the BHS webmaster. I "do" the answering machine for the Oregon Woodworkers Guild. I've set a good routine for caring for it. I jumped in and put in my memories; now I'll see who is listed. Oh, Concert Schedule? I did not continue on the baritone horn, but am having a ball learning how to make my fingers behave on a v'cello." John Kennedy Payne 1956-57

Walking up Rod and Gun club road, or taking the bus to get to the PX. Bagging at the commissary. The teachers and staff that helped mold my life. Friends. Friends made at BAHS are easily people with whom I would trust my life, even today after not seeing nor hearing from some friends for a considerable amount of time. Dancing my life away in every Disco within a 80k radius. Autobahn. Schnell Imbiss. Carnival. (Not my favorite memory...) My father's funeral. For me the old cliche', the best times of your life is during high school, held truth!" Michael Kohlgraf 1975-85

E-mail me or Cindi Neal and lets all get back together for one huge party BUCS STYLE. We can even find a soccer field somewhere just for the hell of it.HA HA. To all the future Bucs...enjoy it while you can...Just recently (Aug 99) we had a reunion in Dallas with OVERSEASBRATS and had a blast. We talked about hanging out at the playhouse between classes to grab a quick smoke, all the trips we went on, hanging out in the halls, all of our favorite teachers. Mr Taylor and Mr Mizgala were at the reunion. It was great to see them and catch up on some news. We ran into some people that went to BHS in the mid 70's and got a kick out of their yearbook. I had gotten a hold of a 97-98 yearbook and we all had such a blast comparing the differences. The friends you make in Baumholder have a way of staying with you for life. We had proven that this year. It was like no time had passed (even tho it was about 14 yrs) and we started talking like we had just left. I can't wait till the next one and hope to see more BUCS there. Michael Wade...where are you??? We have been searching for you. Email me if you have any info on him..Thanks."

The people, both students and teachers, made the place. I've been to one multi-class reunion. It reaffirmed my belief that I met my best friends and the most quality people in BAUMHOLDER, Germany, home of the battling BUCCANEERS. I even named my son Nathan's USSSA National Championship basketball team the Manhattan BUCCANEERS! To fellow BUCS, get in touch with me. Later!" Vic Garcia, class of Victory, 1973!

"You mean I have to pick one? Seven years gave me a lot to choose from..... I'd say it was in 1998, visiting my mom & sister from college. I was driving to post from their place in Ruthweiler (right next to Kusel pool, remember?) and I saw Baumholder, stretched out before me in all its simple beauty, just over the hills. I stopped the car, just looking at it for a while, reminiscing. I took a picture, too, and it's posted on my website (http://members.xoom.com/lead_ink/features/baumholder.html), along with some other pictures I've either taken or scanned outta the 1994-95 yearbook."

It was a great time for all involved. I also must mention the success we experienced on the athletic feild my senior year(1973) which included being Silver Division Champs in football, Second place Class B Europe in basketballand Class B Champions Europe in track.

Field trips, getting to know some of the greatest teachers in education. They were not only teachers but also friends. Even though they had problems teaching me proper english.

My name is Adam R. Niemeyer"

"Gosh, there are so many to choose from! I think that I would have to say hanging with all my friends, and all of the trips that I have been on for class, soccer, NHS, and band, and everything else. While I was there, I once had someone come up to me and to enjoy the trips, because they do end some day. And boy was he right...traveling in Europe can be amazing! And now that I am gone from there, I turn around and offer the same advice and sentiments to those who are still there.

Michael Perez mperez@purdue.com

"Relatively small student body and development of close relationships among other students in foreign environment and exposure to travel and interaction with local populations. Teen club, slumber parties in Faulenberg, living on economy first in Oberstein in a house on the Nahe River and walking to the bahnhof each morning to catch the school bus, friends and "first loves" I hated to leave and will never forget." Alice Nye Fitch 1958-60

Too much fun to list, too many parties (graduation at the castle), too many memories. E-mail: terrybearden@excite.com " Terry Peek Bearden

"Tills-the Hut!!" Clayton Riley 1984-92

"The friendships that i made made and still carry on to this day. I would haveto say that the footbal trips were great along with all the practices and weightlifting sessions. Some of those jokes and laughes the boys shared in there probably can't printed but hey we know what they are and that is what counts. Next I would have to go with all the other cool stuff like the fest, the clubs, soccer trips, hanging with the boys (Will, Robbie, Slop, Shawn B, Dan, Merryl.) Then I have to give a yell to all the beautiful ladies of Baumholder: Jenny, Emily, Lizzy, Julia, AJ, Janine, Mandy and of course last but definately not least Hollie. I ain't mad at cha girl do your thing I am. Hey to the rest of the boys Tyus, Reese, Carlis, Alton, Alex and all ya'll what up and peace out.

Jamiel Saliba 1994-96

"As a kid raised in Texas, my favorite memory of Baumholder was a foggy cold night just prior to the '78 prom. The night held back my increasing speculation about my personal future, and I was frozen in time much like a hundred meter man is frozen as he waits for the starter pistol to release him. It was quite a night!" Rick House 1977-78

"I lived in Baumholder from 1985 until I graduated in 92. One of the things that remains constant is that people come and go. When they go they take with them an encredible experience. One that we can all relate to. We all know that when someone recalls a sports trip most likey they are talking about what they did on the way there or while they were there. Ask Louis Batson Soccer 91-92. You know that when I say we had good teachers and good educations I mean they are good people and good friends. If you are fortunate enough to be attending BAHS, get to know them. Find out how Rick Stanford is able to crush a softball like that. Whether its the movie theater or the Hall of Champions, its all familiar. This is my perpetual memory. The fact that we can all read someone elses memories and know exactly where they are coming from." Tyrone Walker 1985-92

"My favorite memories of Baumholder would have to be all the good times we had on the soccer trips. Merrill, Jakob, Sean, Dustin, Matt and all the rest of the squad know what I'm talking about. All of our trips to Londond and Paris. And best of all just chillin with all of my friends and have and grand old time. Soccer or Futbol in spanish rules. " Elio Franco 1998

"The people--I think about the students and staff often. How can you encapsulate so much in just one paragraph? I am a better mother, wife, educator because of the experiences I had at BAHS, the travel and the friendships I developed--it would have been difficult to find that kind of closeness in the US. I hope to reconnect with a lot of my "buddies"!" Sherry (Kim) Hayes (Langford) 1978-81

"My two best friend Diana Tomasic and Bobbie Kostenbauder. The freedom of living in Europe (even on an army base). The snow and the dreaded schnitzel burger at the PX. Playing softball. Going from Idar Oberstein to Baumholder via the "backroad" in the Spring. And the beer. It is strange that after 30 years the school still looks the same -- I hope it still is not painted pink." Diane Huygen 1961-63

"My friends, and all that traveling. We had a great time together." Carmen Rodriguez 1988-91

" I have many favorable memories of the people and events while attending BAHS.

"Well, I personally enjoy memories of myself. I wish I could have been the best MIDI composer, but I can see that I need more practice. As of right now, I'm writing this letter, because I have this happy thought about my "Ralph Psycho" video from 1997-1998. Oh well, I'm long forgotten, and I'm sure plenty of you have said "Good writtens to that loser". Well, just to let you know, I've gotten better, and hopefully, I'll get some positive comments from this current message. As of right now, I've created a phenomenon with this programming of QB, where everybody's taking my ideas, and using them (which I don't mind or care) Well, later Baumholder faculty members. P.S. I apologize to Mr. Barns for what I've done back in the early 1998." Ralph Psycho 1984-98

" That stud muffin Ric Reynolds! What a MAN! What an athlete! What a HUNK! (oops, I thought I'd help Liz and add her info to the list). Maybe I better let her fill this part in---HAAAA! HAAAA!----you guessed right, it's me, Ric.." Elizabeth Nelson (Reynolds) 1963-65

"Classes in Quonset huts. I don't know why, I always thought that was a kick. And parties in the woods, near old stone castles. We just don't have anything like that in Manhattan.." John Walsh 1980-83

" A number of things come to mind but of course graduating is #1. All the good friends that I made, winning the football championship that year, playing basketball, soccer, etc. and travelling throughout Europe. Our senior trip to England was a blast.

" Looking back on this page, I realize we all have 2 things in common: we all hated it while we were there and we can't get enough once we're gone. With all the public school problems going on in the states, I feel very fortunate to have gone to a small school, I felt very safe there. I'm grateful that I have stayed in touch with a few of my close friends, I married one in fact!(Mrs. Jason Koenig as of 3-14-98) Renee, Dan & Kyle are like family. The extended family has yet to be reunited. Drew, where are you??!! (Toya, I miss you girl) There was just such a support system in Baumholder. It kinda spoils you for the real world. The memories could read like a MasterCard commercial: PRICELESS. I'll always remember flinging pumpkin candy around the library dueing MUN (oops). We found some 2nd semester organizing the library! And you had to love when the heat would go out in half the building--the half where all of your classes were. During my Senior year we had 2+ princpals--we were all not-so- secretly afraid of Ms. Robles, though. In my other message all I talked about was the Trip to London & Paris, I realized how short sighted that was when I re-read it all. Baumholder as whole was absolutely, positively one of the best experiences I have ever had, and will probably remain that way for the rest of my life. God bless & take care.

"I distinctly remember driving a tractor up the bay door of Mr. Cummins small engine shop. I remember all my friends. If Mr. McGuffin is still there...someone put him out if his misery please!!! For all my Buc friends... BB is still alive and retarded as ever! Although I've lost contact with all my friends I made in Baumholder and Strassburg I will never forget any of them. The faculty was by far the best! When I returned stateside I found the schools here very impersonal. What I can say to current stundents is this....you don't know what you've got till it's gone. I did a lot of learning and even more growing while I was in Germany. I can honestly say that my experiences there helped shape me into the person I am today. " Adrion Saenz 1986-89

Band was the best, no matter how bad we marched!! Honor Band ranks right up there too. All I need to know I learned in Baumholder: thirty seconds of black, soccer balls are like eggs, four seasons in two minutes, you can pass AP history, and so much more, some of which I can not mention. The people were so great. All the teachers, with only two exceptions, were so great and helpful. Mr. Hartline and Ms. Spruiell are the craziest people I have ever known, putting up with students like Chris Wiggins, me, Alfredo Fuentes, Kyle Streagle, Janine Dougan, and many others year after year. Kudos to you. The friends I made are the best. I love them all, no matter what we went through. God knows we went through a lot. Lizzie, Chris, Sandra, Tony, Mark, Ansel and all the rest. I love Baumholder so much. I love all the memories. Especially senior year. And if you haven't noticed, I still talk as much as I used to. Write me at mandyjoy@mailcity.com " Mandy Stevenson 92-98

"Man, I don't even know where to begin. All I can say is people complain so much about Baumholder when their there, but when they actually leave the place, thats when it hits them. They don't realize how fun Baumholder can be until it's too late and time to move on. I thought I would never be saying thise, but I really miss Baumholder, not just because of the people but also the location. Great for traveling in Europe. Wish I would have done more when I was there. So people who are still there should take advantage. Of course I will never forget the wonderful teachers that I had specially Mr. Lundy, Ms. Magowan, and of course Mr. Hartline. I will specially miss my best friends there Ansel Olson and Brian Diesslhorst, but I know we will keep in touch and remain best friends forever. I was in Baumholder since I was in the 4th grade and graduated with the class of 98. So basiclly I grew up there and will miss it very much. Hope all of you guys there keep in touch and I will do the same. A lot of memories there in Baumholder and will remain with me for a life time." Jayrold Balagot c/o 98

I have been playing guitar for 11 years now and since leaving Baumholder, have picked up the drums, bass guitar, and have been playing live music for the better part of 9 years now. I really couldn't thank him enough if I tried. He and a few freinds that convinced me that I could be in band class really set the course for my life. Thank You Mr. Hartline." Doug Preston

"I spent five wonderful years at BAHS 1971-76. The bicentennial class of '76. A student body so small that everyone was involved in something! BAHS is where I learned to be open-minded and tolerant. It is where I began to know myself. My first kiss in Paris. My first real kiss at an all area dance. My first love. My first goal. My first beer. The firsts are always more memorable than the seconds and what comes after. BAHS was full of firsts for me. I remember the yearbook staff trip to Italy in 1973. We printed the yearbook at school in 1974 - weeks and weeks of long days and nights. Wonderful teachers - Bob Dorris, Fred Jensen, Mr. Morawaki. I also have fond memories of Don Rock and Harvey Henningsen both whom are no longer with us. Learning, participating, playing - soccer trips on the duty train through East Germany to Berlin; Senior class trip to London; Senior year homecoming when everyone was busted for drinking.

"It was still an age of innocence; running around with friends trying to be or do something you knew you shouldn't but did anyway. From playing in the band, to playing on the tennis team. Driving for the first time and getting in a crash, or getting caught by the German Army while they were on maneuvers. It was a great day when classes were cancelled due to snow an you ended up wasting it by getting knee deep in the stuff doing nothing but getting wet and cold; but it still seemed like the best day you ever had!

Ms. Crowell's English class and that journal no one liked to do. Frau Schmidt's German classes - I eventually got 1 week detention from her. Walks to the Eis Cafe and bakery downtown. Swimming trips away at Berlin, spin the bottle on the train, and mostly Mrs. Parker's friendly presence at our swimming events. Ha!Ha! Sleepovers with friends and almost getting caught smoking in the bathroom with Shelley Totten. My first kiss and seeing Alien 3 times at the theater. Mostly all the friendships I made.

"I'm not really sure which of my memories were my favorites. There were so many! It would have to be the fact that I met a lot of great people, whether they be teachers or students. I enjoyed all of the sports trips we went on and the concerts. (That's to you Mr. Lundy!) Also, to all of my really close friends which I made in the 3 years of being at Baumholder. I love you all and miss you very much and you all know who you are! What people say is true. You would think that you would never like living in Baumholder, but you realize how much you miss it after you've left. Take Care everyone! --Elizabeth Bedard--

One of the most embarrassing: I went the wrong way in a basketball game...:} One of the best: Carrollville in the fourth grade..(Janine and Stacia know what I mean:))...The absolute best thing is that I made so many close friends there and I know I will keep in touch with them for as long as possible...I love you guys!!!" Mary Vetter

" All though I have only been away from Baumholder for less than a couple of months I still miss everybody like crazy. I never was actually a high school student but I still felt like I totlly belonged.
The best part about BAHS ( besides soccer:) ) was it being so family like. I know how everybody says how they hate Baumholder and can't wait to move but once you do move you will realize how special it is. I had more than my share of problems in Baumholder with friends, life. But now that I'm in Arizona with 2,400 students (900 freashman) I would go back to Baumholder any day. I miss having a teacher that can match my name with my face, but I can't really blame them. I would like to exspecialy thank Mr. Standford for everything he has done for me, he is a great guy. Puting up with me for two year teaching me everythig I know and me having to move when I would finally
be able to play soccer for him. I am playing soccer year round now though. I would also like to thank Mr.Hartline, having his class twice a day for 3 hours was great. London was awesome! I thank all the 7th and 8th grade teachers for everything I am surviving in my new school and have made lots of friends. All the people at BAHS are great and for the ones that are still there (Deanna,Justin, Erin, ect) have a great year. BAUMHOLDER RULES!! Regina Zeleski

"I can not say that I had one overwhelmingly favorite memory of Baumholder. Instead I have a wealth of memories that I would like to share with all who read this. Some of the very best years of my short life were spent in Baumholder. I remember the church that sits on the top of the hill that overlooks Baumholder. I remember watching the snow fall on brisk winter days from Upper Wetzel apartment building number 8819 apartment 1A. I remember my beloved Troop 96. The Camporees, camp-outs, and Christmas tree sales were a blast. I miss hiking through the town with a troop full of young, impressionable young men possessed with a love for adventure and knowledge. I remember Baumholder High School. I especially remember Ms. Spruiell and her video class. I always gave her such a hard time but that was only because she was such a great friend to me. Mr. Stanford's class was a great eye-opener to the wonderful world of algebra that we all love and adore. Actually, Mr. Stanford's class was simply a chance to warn all of the students about the dreaded Ms. Dominguez. I had Ms. Dominguez and absolutely loved her. I believe that Mr. Stanford was just bluffing. I remeber the ski trips with Ms. Hayward-Small and the trip to London and Sussex with the Drama club. I made many life-long friends and memories in the quaint village affectionately known as Baumholder. <grin>" Nathan Askwith

"How can I possibly remember everything. I had so much fun. Ms. Spreuill's class, Ms. Hayward-Small's class in AP US History and World History, and especially Mr. Hartline's class the most. I loved the band and all I did in it. The London trips, the making of the CD and even more memorable was the Iceberg or Frezzing Fashing Parade in which I froze myself to death and as a result I could not play my trusty clarinet. The trip to Rottenburg?, the snow, the landscape, the aquaducts while going to Strassburg Kaserne every Sunday to church. The powder puff football game my Junior year in which certain people of the male sex dressed up like cheerleaders since we had a shortage. Ah, there is soooo much to remember. I miss Baumholer. I miss Germany. It certainly has been the best place I have been to." Rachel Askwith

"I was Chief of Surgery United States Army Hospital Baumholder 1953 to 1954, Wallace G. Elliott, Captain M.C.. Things were pretty primitive in Baumholder at that time, The town was pretty primitive as was the night life. The coal burning train to get to Baumholder.Dependant housing was very tight. No High school.The nights in the emergency room could be very interesting. We did have some great fun. When the German conductor in Frankfurt saw I was going to Baumholder. He said SIBERIA. Love to all and if my secretary Lillian Klein is still in Idar-Oberstein a special hello to her. Best wishes." Wallace Elliott

I lost my childhood when I left my country behind, but I found a brave new world out there and a brave new person inside trying to get out ! It's hard to pinpoint ONE favorite memory of such an impressionable 3 years of my life in such a "way out" place... Maybe listing the "places" would be easier -- "doggie-doo football in the circle at the end of Upper Faulenburg, the AYA by Wetzel Elementary, the Community Center with its pinball machine that you could always win free games, Faulenburg Theatre (across from the school) where the best part of the movie was the adlib from the teenage audience, skateboarding down the sidewalk connecting Uppers & Lowers, sledding down Suicide Hill, walking to school thru each buildings "dungeon" on bad weather days (which were MANY), taking the German bus to downtown Germantown... First love, best friends -- our own little "USA small town" in the middle of a foreign country ! It was a great place to "grow up"... Thanks for the memories, Baumholder!" Sherry Tracy (now "Sharp")

Dec 86 I think. Another sad day was when my Counselor killed herself on March 31 1986 (?). I also hung out at the bowling alley and Hall of Champs.

But my most fav moment was walking around from wetzel to Smith and catching salamanders... Is there still one traffic light ;) I miss Baumholder." Robert Taylor

His smart mouth said, "Because there's plenty of bull for you right here!!!" I just thought that was the funniest thing!!!" Joe Harrison

"There were so many things that were memorable about Baumholder. First and foremost was all the great Jazz Band trips, and the 3 years of Honors Band. Mr. Hartline's Advanced Band classes were always a trip cause of all the stress we caused, but he always seemed to get those concerts to turn out good! Next would be all of the friends that had a special place within me. You guys know who you are. Last, but not least is Mr. Lundy and when he sang for us at graduation.

"I remember many things about Baumholder, from my first sight of the town driving in from Frankfurt on the shuttle bus, to having an armed escort on my bus during the Gulf War. I remember growing up in Baumholder. No one memory is more important to me than another; they all join together to help form the tapestry of my life. Baumholder has become a part of who I am. I moved to Baumholder as a child, and I moved away just before I turned 18. I can't think of a single moment of my life where some one, some thing or some force from Baumholder was not involved in some way.

he was definitely the best. We had the best soccer trips and jokes thanks to Mr. Stanford. Remember the purple hat guys. Let's not forget the Band outings. Hartline always came up with the best entertainment in class. I can't possibly forget those teachers who put the effort into teaching and to make BAHS better. And Spruiell's class, our personal lunch room, can not be forgotten. The good memories are there, maybe in disguise, but they are there. Just stroll back down that road we traveled on and you will see.... RRRrrrr!!" Emily Drane

The day Baumholder High School won the small schools' soccer championship (boys) in Munich in May of 1989. 3. The Berlin/Baumholder Homecoming football game for the league championship in November 1990. Baumholder 8 Berlin 0. 4. The day "Good Morning America" came -- December 5, 1995." Rhonda Spruiell

The AYA where I worked and my many friends who were always at Clair's most evening. For those that know how important you were and are to me, my gratitude.

"One of my most memorable moments was having the honor to be in Advanced Choir with one of my most favorite teachers, Mr. Lundy. I was also involved in a variety of sports. Track - 9th, Volleyball - 10th-11th, Basketball - 10th-11th, and Soccer - 10th-11th. Many of the sports trips were very memorable to me. I miss being with all of my teammates and coaches. My coaches taught me well and I thank them. I also enjoyed being in Mrs. Drane's A.P. U.S. History class, even if I did get lost most of the time. She's a great teacher! Drawing class, my sophomore year, was quite interesting. Mr. Barnes helped me to realize some of the things which I am capable of, and it took a lot of patience! I really miss some of my really close friends, and you all know who you are. I just miss being in Baumholder in general because it felt like family. I miss any teacher which I had while I was in Baumholder. I really can't say which year was most memorable for me because they were all special in their own ways. I wish all of the class of 1997 a great year and good luck! If anyone thinks that I have forgotten them, I would just like to let them know that I haven't. They all have touched my life in someone way and I would like to thank them for helping me become who I am today. I wish everyone the best." Elizabeth Bedard

"I was there when the Berlin Wall was built and I'll never forget sitting in class as the tanks rolled out of Baumholder. The noise was deafening. You couldn't talk over the noise and we couldn't leave school because all the roads were blocked for the tanks. We sat by the windows watching our fathers leave, many of us crying, all of us scared.Finally,some of us just left school and walked home.My mother was packing things she was shipping back to the states. She shipped a bunch of stuff back that never arrived in the states and that we never saw again. My son was in Berlin when the Wall came down and brought me back a big chunk of it." Vicki Bradley

"My favorite memory of Baumholder was how friendly everyone was and how much fun we were always allowed to have!" Amanda Parks

"My favorite memory of Baumholder would have to be the year I was in the eighth grade. So many different positive things happened that year that I definitely could not list them all. I have wonderful memories of being in the Stage Band and Pep Band, also the Video Club. I'm just glad it was made possible for me and I will never forget any of it." Kristina Williams
