Well this next brought back memories of being born in then West Germany and living at Panzer Kaserne in Boblingen just outside of Stuttgart. With my dad being stationed there I grew up around Tanks and SPA they were my "jungle gyms" at the time. Panzer Kaserne was one of two of Nazi Germany's largest armor bases and it continued in that role along with the U.S. Army until around 2000 give or take if I'm not mistaken. So it's only appropriate that our last tanks in Germany should depart from nearby Stuttgart. This is from 4 April 2013. I guess we'll have to simulate bringing heavy armor back over for game purposes now !?!
