I immedialty took college cources thru the U of Maryland, settled in military life. That was pretty easy as they provided everything, paying for us to live on the German economy.

I was very happy, reunited with a wonderful family, that felt like home. Our life revolved around St. Benedict Center and the children did recieve their education there.

I would like to connect with some old HS, JH or elementry friends.
