Wow, what a coincidence? My brother was in the Army and he lived off base. He rented an apartment from an elderly German lady, along with a couple of others. I forget what her name was, but I'll get back to you. Who knows we could have passed each other.

Wow, yes that's possible! We stayed with my grandparents (Opa & Oma) :) I even remember the street (Breslauer Str). Lampertheim is not that big of a city. Have you been back?
No, unfortunately, the 1 month spent in Europe has been my only foreign travels. I am going to ask my brother if he remembers the address. I'm pretty sure he will. He called his landlord mama or something like that. I'll have to get out google maps to check. My brother just left this AM to California to refinance his rental house, so it will probably be a couple weeks til he gets back.

Would be fun to know the street. Your brother is heading to my state, small world!!
OK, I had to call my brother on the road to ask if he remembered the address. It was Martha Getrost , Lampertheim Heide. He couldn't remember the # and he said it was a rural part of Lampertheim so something like a Rural Route. He was stationed at Coleman AFB (he was an Army guy, so not sure why at an AFB)and lived off base.
My brothers rental house is in Rio Vista which is where he lived when he was in the Air Force. Huh, I thought you said he was in the Army. Yep, enlisted Army got out in the real world for college, didn't like it , so he reenlisted Air Force.
I'll have to ask my Mom if she knew her. I had to look up where Rio Vista is..I see it's up by San Francisco, where one of my son's live. I'm sure your brother has has many interesting stories to tell! Thanks for sharing :)
