On any other work day, Yasmin
Farria would be sitting behind a window in this spacious room, processing paperwork for hopeful citizens
one-by-one.
It took a fiancé visa, a green card
and years of paperwork and waiting
to get to this point, but today, she is
on the other side of the window, so to
speak, and will become a citizen of
the United States of America.
Farria, a native German, employee
with the Non-immigrant Visa section
at the U.S. Consulate in Frankfurt
and a Wiesbaden spouse, was one of
12 candidates for naturalization to
receive her citizenship at a ceremony
June 25 in Frankfurt.

IMCOM commander:
Stay safe this July 4
By Lt. Gen. David Halverson
Installation Management Command
Commanding General
July Fourth is a great occasion in our country and a
day to celebrate with patriotism.
John Adams, the first vice president and second
president of the United States, helped write the Declaration of Independence. He said, “I am apt to believe
that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as
the great anniversary festival. It ought to be solemnized
with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns,
bells, bonfires and illuminations from one end of this
continent to the other.”
Independence Day remains a national celebration
just as President Adams predicted. We encourage you
to celebrate in the spirit of independence and patriotism
that has endured for 239 years. As Army professionals
who protect our freedom, we must remain aware of the
risks present at July Fourth festivities.
Outdoor activities are a source of sunburn and heat
injuries. Drink plenty of water and take frequent breaks
when working or playing in hot weather.
Water activities are also popular during the July Fourth
weekend. Wear life jackets while boating, swim only in
supervised areas and obey posted signs.
Pay attention to weather conditions and get out of
the water at the first sign of bad weather.
Alcohol doesn’t mix with boating, swimming or driving. Watch your consumption and don’t drink if you will
operate any type of vehicle. Give a responsible person
details on where you will be and how long you will be
gone for added safety.
Enjoy Independence Day as you celebrate with family and friends. Please be safe because our nation needs
each one of us to support and defend this great country.
Once a Soldier, Always a Soldier. Soldier for Life!
Retaliation and sexual assault
Capt. Bridget Karns
Legal Office
When a sexual assault happens to
a member of a unit or office, it can
lead to a variety of emotions, feelings or opinions. It is important for
command and peers to understand the
consequences of how they interact
and respond to a victim of a sexual
assault. It is especially important
that there is no retaliation against a
victim of sexual assault. Within the
Department of Defense, retaliation
encompasses both professional and
social retaliation, which is a chargeable offense under the Uniform Code
of Military Justice.
Professional retaliation is described by the DoD, as “taking
or threatening to take an adverse
personnel action or withholding or
threatening to withhold a favorable
personnel action, with respect to a
member of the Armed Forces, because the member made a protected
communication (e.g. filed a report of
sexual assault).”
This can also include the punishment of victims for minor “collateral
misconduct,” which only came to the
attention of the command because
the victim came forward to report a
sexual assault. Fear of punishment
for collateral misconduct remains a
major obstacle for service member
victims to come forward with a
sexual assault report.
The DoD has also recognized that
retaliation can take place outside the
workplace in social settings which
“includes social ostracism and such
acts of maltreatment committed
by peers of the victim or by other
persons because the member made
a protected communication.”
Human Rights Watch recently
conducted a study into retaliation
against U.S. military members who
reported a sexual assault. In the survey, many of the victims felt that the
aftermath and fall-out of the sexual
assault, to include bullying and isolation from their peers, to damage
to their careers, was worse than the
assault itself.
In essence, these survivors of a
sexual assault were being re-victimized by the commands and peers
who should be supporting them, as
“everyone is told from day one that
the military is your family…If you
are sexually assaulted it takes on an
incestuous dynamic. It is that level of
betrayal. Then it goes to your command—if the command handles it
badly, that’s another level of betrayal.
Every time the system fails, another
layer of betrayal (Retaliation against
Sexual Assault Survivors in the US
Military, Human Rights Watch, May
2015, 7).”
This issue has not only been addressed by concerned outside agencies such as Human Rights Watch,
but also by the DoD itself. On June
19, 2014, the secretary of the Army
issued Army Directive 2014-20
(Prohibition of Retaliation Against
Soldiers for Reporting a Criminal
Offense). The directive states that
“no Soldier may retaliate against a
victim, an alleged victim or another
member of the Armed Forces based
on that individual’s report of a criminal offense.” The provisions of this
directive are punitive, meaning that
if there is retaliation, that person
may be punished under Article 92
of the UCMJ.
Retaliation, either by peers or the
command, socially or professionally, is not tolerated. Allegations of
retaliation will be investigation by
the appropriate Inspector General’s
office and appropriate action will
be taken against those violating
the directive. Victims who report a
sexual assault deserve the support
and respect of their commands and
peers, not ostracism and threats.
If you have questions, please
feel free to contact your nearest
law center. In Wiesbaden, the Legal
Assistance Office is in the Welcome
Center, Bldg. 1023W on Clay Kaserne or call mil: 537-0664; or civ:
(0611) 134-537-0664. The office is
open Mondays through Wednesdays

SOFA stamp
needed before
crossing border
By Robert Szostek
U.S. Army Europe Customs
Public Affairs
Many of us take trips to the United States
and elsewhere at this time of year. But don’t
leave Germany without a valid Status of Forces
Agreement, or SOFA stamp or card because you
will need it when you come back to Germany.
German immigration officials report that
U.S. forces family members and civilians are
showing up at Frankfurt International Airport
and Ramstein Air Base terminals without proper
documentation. German officials have been very
lenient in the past. However, they have noticed
an increase in personnel leaving and re-entering
Germany without a SOFA stamp or card.
“Military members stationed in Germany are
required to present a military ID card, service
travel orders and, if on leave, a valid leave
form when leaving or entering Germany,” said
Wil Respress, chief of the U.S. Army Customs
Agency – Europe office at Ramstein Air Base.
For family members and civilian employees,
a valid passport and SOFA stamp or card are
required to cross the German border.
When questioned about SOFA cards, many
travelers stated they were not aware that this is
a mandatory requirement.
However, the wording on the stamp or card
makes the intent clear: “The bearer is a member of a civilian component, or dependent, of
a member of a force or civilian component of
the United States of America and is entitled to
unrestricted entry into and exit from the Federal
Republic of Germany”.
“Please ensure your family members have
SOFA stamps or cards to comply with German
immigration requirements,” Respress added.
Violators can face harsh fines and possibly
even deportation, he stressed. Please contact
your servicing passport office to obtain a SOFA
card. Finally, travelers should inform themselves
of general entry requirements of any foreign
country they will be visiting well in advance of
their departure to ensure they have the required
type of passport and, if applicable, visa.
Contact the Wiesbaden Passport Office located in Bldg. 1023N, Room 161. The office is
open Monday, Wednesday and Friday 8:30-11:30
a.m. for walk-ins and 1-4 p.m. for appointments
and walk-ins on a space-available basis.
On Thursday, it is open 9 a.m. to noon for

“I feel very good about becoming a U.S. citizen
today,” she said. “I feel like it was time.”
Pvt. 1st Class Marianne Franco, 19 and a native
of Baguio City, the Philippines, has been in the Army
a little over a year and was sent to Germany a little
after — but can’t travel outside of Germany because
she doesn’t have a U.S. passport. Her first stop upon
receiving her citizenship — and passport — will be
Paris to celebrate her 20th birthday, she said.
“This means so much to me,” she said. “I get to
travel. And whenever we say the Soldier’s Creed, I
will feel even more proud now that I have the title of
‘citizen.’ It feels so good.”
Farria, Franco and the other candidates, from
nine different countries, gathered on the lawn at the
consulate to hear from Director of U.S. Citizenship
and Immigration Services, León Rodríguez, himself
the son of Cuban immigrants who came to America
seeking freedom and opportunity.
“They came to discover the wonder that is the
United States,” he said of his parents. “[Democracy]
must be protected by those that would undermine it.
You are here because you are doing the unexpected.
I urge you to continue doing the unexpected. Vote,
participate civilly and volunteer in your communities.”
With that, the new citizens received their certificates.

Sgt. Morales, Dr. Mary E. Walker club welcome new members
Story and photos by Shayna Brouker
U.S. Army Garrison Wiesbaden Public Affairs Office
Sergeant Morales.
These two words impart more awe-inspired honor to
an NCO than possibly any others in the Army. They automatically mean unmatched professionalism, utmost
leadership and an unquestioned dedication to duty.
As one member put it, “If I know a Soldier is a
member of the Sgt. Morales Club, I already know he
is a excellent Soldier.”
1st Sgt. Dexter Clemons with the 1st Battalion,
214th Aviation Regiment, was inducted into the club
at a ceremony June 22. Civilians Jessica Curtis and Joe
Bednash were also honored with the Mary E. Walker
award. U.S. Army Europe Command Sgt. Maj. Sheryl
Lyons served as the guest speaker.
“Be that NCO that Soldiers turn to for advice and
counsel rather than to a Facebook page or app,” she
encouraged the inductees.
The Sgt. Morales Club process itself demands
candidates to step outside of their comfort zone that
further prepared them for leadership roles. The board
asks questions that test what a leader would do in a
certain situation, rather than recite memorized answers.
“You have to stay focused,” said Clemons. “Every
day junior Soldiers look to us for mentorship, so that
one day they’ll take our place. The questions get you
thinking how you would apply leadership.”
Lyons also had special words for the Dr. Mary
E. Walker award recipients. The award recognizes

military spouses for “outstanding dedication and
exemplary volunteerism” to improving the quality
of life for USAREUR Soldiers and their Families.
Dr. Mary Walker is the only woman in U.S. history
to receive the Medal of Honor
“This award is special to me,” she said, describing
the role Dr. Walker played as one of the first female
doctors in 1855, a time when women were not supposed to be physicians. “She faced danger and she was
imprisoned, but her dedication to her fellow human
beings outweighed her difficulties. For the things you
do for us, thank you. Without you, our communities
would become despondent.”
Joe Bednash has been on the Booster Board for
the past three and a half years, which contributed
$60,000 to Wiesbaden High School clubs, remodeled
the Amelia Earhart Playhouse, saving over $25,000
in cost and built a habitat for the high school’s “Jake
the Snake,” saving over 2,000 euros — just to name
a few projects.
“It’s a huge honor for me to be recognized,” he said.
“I just do whatever I have to do to support my kids.”
Jessica Curtis is a strong supporter of local Boy
Scouts of America troops, serving in many roles, including merit badge counselor, assistant Scoutmaster,
crew advisor, district trainer, troop committee chair and
Rheingold district chair. She mentored more than 15
Scouts on their path to becoming Eagle Scouts. This
dedication led to her selection as Barbarossa District
Executive, overseeing all Boy Scouts of America units
in the Frankfurt, Wiesbaden, Kaiserslautern, Ramstein,
Landstuhl, Sembach and Baumholder communities.
“I think this event is the epitome of volunteer program,” said Lyon. “I’m blown away by the number of
people here. It’s testament to the volunteerism present
in this community, and I hope to doing more of these
ceremonies in the future.”

CAC change
will aid visually
impaired
security officers
By Terri Moon Cronk
Defense Media Activity
The Defense Department’s Common Access Card is undergoing modification to make
it easier for visually color-impaired security
officials to identify bearers who are military,
government or contractor civilians, or foreign nationals, a Defense Human Resources
Activity official said recently.
The changes to the cards are federally
mandated, said Sam Yousef, the DHRA identification card and benefits policy program
manager, in a DoD News interview June 16.
Beginning in July, only new CACs will
be issued with the changes -- encircled letters
“W” for military and civilian employees, “G”
for contractors and “B” for foreign nationals,
Yousef said. The encircled letter will appear
under the card’s expiration date.
The letters will accompany white, green
or blue bands across the cards, so security
officials who cannot discern color can rely
on the letter instead, Yousef said. Security
officials will recognize the new format as
valid DOD cards on military installations
both stateside and overseas.
Another change on the CAC will be
varied type size to accommodate the length
of employees’ names, he said. Standard type
size is 10 point, but 7-point type will be used
for longer names, he explained.
Yousef emphasized that DOD employees
with up-to-date CACs do not need to get new
cards. The new format will only be issued
for new and expiring cards.
“The change is going to be implemented
through the natural life cycle of the cards, so
people don’t need to have their cards replaced
for this purpose,” he said.
New CAC holders and those whose cards
are about to expire can update them at their
Defense Eligibility Enrollment Reporting
System ID card office, Yousef said.

Secretary of Defense
Ashton Carter ended his
European tour with a visit
to the Grafenwoehr Training Area and the 7th Army
Joint Multinational Training Command today.
“It is not a birth right
that the people of America
and Germany get to live
the way they do now,” said
Secretary Carter. “We have
to continue to work hard to
protect our people and that
underlines the importance
of the training you are doing here”.
His stop in Bavaria,
Germany, is the last of the
countries he visited this
week, including Estonia
and Belgium. While here
he participated in a series
of meetings with European
defense ministers and to
participate in his first NATO
Ministerial as Secretary of
Defense.
While in Grafenwoehr,
Carter met with U.S. and
Romanian Soldiers participating in U.S. Army Europe’s Exercise Combined
Resolve IV. He observed
a combined arms life fire
training exercise which
demonstrated the superior
firepower capabilities possible through tactical level
teamwork and successful
interoperability. The training also showcased the
capabilities of the Grafenwoehr Training Area and
its ability to integrate a variety of weapons platforms
for realistic training. The

Abrams Tank, the M2A3
Bradley Fighting Vehicle,
the M109A6 Paladin SelfPropelled Howitzer, and
the Romanian BTR-80
Armored Personnel Carrier,
as well as light infantry
Romanian Soldiers.
This live fire exercise
was the culmination of
Combined Resolve IV. The
Combined Resolve series
of exercises was designed
to train participants to
function together in a multinational and integrated
environment and train U.S.
Army rotational forces to
Europe to be more flex-
ible, agile and better able
to operate alongside allies
and partners.
After observing training, Carter had lunch with
junior officers, spoke about
the mission in Europe and
took questions from Soldiers living and training
in the Grafenwoehr community.
“You are deterring aggression, you are preparing
to respond to crises, you
are preparing to deal with
terrorism and this is necessary for a civilized society
to exist. You do it with your
colleagues here in Europe
because they see things the
way you do, they share a lot
of the same values that we
have, so they are natural
allies because we stand for
the same things. That is the
best kind of ally you can
possibly have.
Secretary Carter ended
his visit by individually
thanking every Soldier
present for their service.

New IMCOM Voluntary Placement Program launches
By HQ IMCOM Civilian
Personnel Branch
U.S. Army Installation Management
Command
The Installation Management Command’s new Voluntary Placement
Program will give first consideration
to internal employees wishing to move
overseas or return to the continental U.S.
from an overseas position.
Beginning June 30 eligible permanent IMCOM GS-09 and above (or wage
grade equivalent) employees were able
to apply to available positions posted
on an AKO portal on a weekly basis.
The goal of the program is to allow
current employees an opportunity to
volunteer for career-broadening assignments within the command before
considering outside applicants.
At this time, the program does not
include opportunities for CONUS to
CONUS or OCONUS to OCONUS
movement, and does not extend to nonappropriated fund (NAF) employees due
to regulatory issues.
Employees may apply for multiple
positions, but are limited to using a
single resume during any given week.
In accordance with DoD Priority
www.wiesbaden.army.mil ........................................................................... July 2, 2015
Placement Program policy, valid job
offers made under the IVPP will be
considered legitimate for IMCOM
OCONUS employees registered in PPP.
Declining an IVPP valid job offer
may result in removal from PPP and
may subject the employee to adverse action. OCONUS PPP registrants should
submit resumes only for positions they
are prepared to accept.

For your health
Prevention and early detection can improve men’s health
By Lauren A. Shirey
U�S� Army Public Health Command
American men are at risk for living less healthy and shorter lives than
American women. According to the
Men’s Health Network, this risk may
be a “silent health crisis” in the United
States and is also one that we can act on.
There are several reasons that men
may be at higher risk for sickness and
death than women. For example, a report
by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention states that women are
100 percent more likely to visit the doctor for annual exams and for services to
support health than men.
Men are also more likely than women
to smoke cigarettes, to die in motor
vehicle accidents and experience other
preventable events. According to the
Men’s Health Network, for younger
men, much of the difference comes
from increased risk-taking and suicide.
Society also often does not promote
healthy behaviors for boys and men.
Men aren’t the only ones affected
by these health issues and these risks.
Since women generally live longer than
men, they see their dads, brothers, sons,
husbands and friends suffer or die early.
Each June, the nation celebrates Men’s
Health Month to increase awareness of
preventable health issues and encourage early detection and treatment for
men and boys. To reduce men’s health
risks and identify and treat any health
conditions or diseases early, focus on
the following three areas:
Make healthy lifestyle choices
• Get quality sleep, engage in physical activity and improve nutrition. These
are the focus of the Army Medicine’s
Performance Triad campaign and they
are fundamental mechanisms to optimize health.
• Do not smoke and avoid secondhand smoke.
• Drink alcohol only in moderation
and find a designated driver to ensure
that no one drinks and drives.
Army Wellness Centers, and installation resources such as athletic centers
and recreational programs, can help
make and continue these important
changes for health.
Taking care of mental and emotional
health is also of key importance. Men
often experience stress and suffer from
depression. They are also less likely to
seek help for depression than women are
and are four times as likely to commit
suicide as women. Depression affects
overall health and well-being and
shouldn’t be ignored. To help improve
mental and emotional health:
• Find ways to de-stress, including
maximizing physical activity and sleep.
• Talk to a chaplain or health care
professional if there is a struggle with
negative thoughts, excessive worries or
hopelessness.
• If there are suicidal thoughts or
plans for suicide, speak to a chaplain,
behavioral health professional, healthcare provider or to a member of the
chain of command immediately.
Get regular health exams
• Schedule an appointment to see a
health care provider for a health checkup at least once per year.
• Go to the exam prepared to share
personal medical history, including current or past substance use, risk factors
for sexually transmitted diseases, diet
and exercise habits and symptoms of

depression. Although it may seem hard
to share, it is important to communicate
this information to the medical provider.
• Bring up any questions or concerns
about any particular health issues, signs,
or symptoms with the provider during
the exam.
Get screened for early detection
Early detection of many conditions
or diseases can lead to early treatment
and can often reduce suffering or risk
of death. To ensure appropriate preventive screenings are received and to
increase chances of finding any health
issue early:
• Know the medical history of
family and share it with the health
care provider. If a family member was
recently diagnosed with a disease, be
sure to update this information with
the provider. Knowing family medical
history can help the provider identify
any screenings that might be of special
importance.
• Keep any follow-up screening
appointments that the provider recommends. Screenings like colonoscopies,
blood pressure checks and blood tests
are all important parts of prevention and
early detection of illness and disease.
Women are in a unique position to
help men to overcome barriers they face
in getting health care and in detecting
potential health risks or diseases early.
Men can be supported through positive
encouragement and letting them know
it is a sign of strength to prevent and
address health risks or conditions. Men
and women can both help boys and teenagers develop these habits early in life,
which is the best course of prevention.
For more information on how to
make healthy lifestyle choices, obtain
a health exam or seek early screening,
contact your primary care provider.
Veterans Affairs asks service members, veterans to monitor health with Burn Pit Registry
Type of waste burned
By the Department of Veterans Affairs
Burn pits were a common way to get
rid of waste at military sites in Iraq and
Afghanistan. At this time, research does
not show evidence of long-term health
problems from exposure to burn pits.
However, the VA continues to study the
health of deployed Veterans.
Health effects from burn pit smoke
toxins in burn pit smoke may affect the
skin, eyes, respiratory and cardiovascular
systems, gastrointestinal tract and internal
organs. Veterans who were closer to burn
pit smoke or exposed for longer periods
may be at greater risk. Health effects depend on a number of other factors, such
as the kind of waste being burned and
wind direction.
Page 14
Herald Union
Most of the irritation is temporary
and resolves once the exposure is gone.
This includes eye irritation and burning,
coughing and throat irritation, breathing
difficulties, and skin itching and rashes.
The high level of fine dust and pollution
common in Iraq and Afghanistan may
pose a greater danger for respiratory
illnesses than exposure to burn pits,
according to a 2011 Institute of Medicine report. The type of waste products
burned in burn pits include, but are not
limited to: chemicals, paint, medical
and human waste, metal/aluminum
cans, munitions and other unexploded
ordnance, petroleum and lubricant
products, plastics, rubber, wood and
discarded food.
Health concerns
Burning waste in open air pits can
cause more pollution than controlled
burning, such as in an incinerator. Health
concerns? If you are concerned about your
exposure to burn pits, talk to your health
care provider or local VA Environmental Health Coordinator. VA health care
is available to all combat Veterans for
conditions possibly related to service for
five years after discharge. Not enrolled in
the VA health care system? Apply online.
Action plan VA, in coordination with the
Department of Defense, has developed
a joint action plan to improve outreach,
clinical care, surveillance, and research.
Action plan
Read the Feb. 4, 2013 notice in the
Federal Register to learn more about VA’s
strategy and action plan. Registry Join the
Airborne Hazards and Open Burn Pit Registry to help us learn more about potential
health effects. Check your eligibility and
sign up through an online questionnaire.
Veterans may file a claim for disability
compensation for health problems they
believe are related to exposure to burn
pits during military service. VA decides
these claims on a case-by-case basis. File
a claim online. Read Federal Benefits for
Veterans, Dependents and Survivors to

When John Connor
(Jason Clarke), leader

back to 1984 to protect Sarah Connor
(Emilia Clarke) and
safeguard the future,
an unexpected turn of
events creates a fractured timeline. Now,
Sgt. Reese finds himself in a new and unfamiliar version of the

with unlikely allies, including the Guardian
(Arnold Schwarzenegger), dangerous new
enemies, and an unexpected new mission:
To reset the future…
Movie plots
Minions — The story of Universal Pictures
and Illumination Entertainment’s Minions
begins at the dawn of time. Starting as
single-celled yellow organisms, Minions
evolve through the ages, perpetually serving the most despicable of masters. Continuously unsuccessful at keeping these
masters—from T. rex to Napoleon—the
Minions find themselves without someone
to serve and fall into a deep depression.
But one Minion named Kevin has a plan,
and he—alongside teenage rebel Stuart
and lovable little Bob—ventures out into
the world to find a new evil boss for his
brethren to follow. The trio embarks upon
a thrilling journey that ultimately leads
them to their next potential master, Scarlet
Overkill (Academy Award® winner Sandra Bullock), the world’s first-ever female
super-villain. They travel from frigid Antarctica to 1960s New York City, ending in
mod London, where they must face their
biggest challenge to date: saving all of
Minionkind...from annihilation. Additionally, Minions is eaturing a soundtrack of
hit music from the ’60s that still permeates
our culture today.
Poltergeist — Legendary filmmaker Sam
Raimi (“Spiderman,” “Evil Dead”, “The
Grudge”) and director Gil Kenan (“Monster
House”) contemporize the classic tale
about a family whose suburban home is
haunted by evil forces. When the terrifying
apparitions escalate their attacks and hold
the youngest daughter captive, the family
must come together to rescue her before
she disappears forever.
Max — A precision-trained military dog, Max
serves on the frontlines in Afghanistan
alongside his handler, U.S. Marine Kyle
Wincott. But when things go terribly wrong
on maneuvers, Kyle is mortally wounded
and Max, traumatized by the loss of his
best friend, is unable to remain in service.
Shipped stateside, the only human he
seems willing to connect with is Kyle’s teenage brother, Justin, so Max is adopted by
Kyle’s family, essentially saving his life. But
Justin has issues of his own, such as living
up to his father’s expectations for him; he
isn’t interested in taking responsibility for
his brother’s troubled dog. However, Max
may be Justin’s only chance to discover
what really happened to his brother that
day on the front, and with the help of a
tough-talking young teen, Carmen, who
has a way with dogs, Justin begins to appreciate his canine companion. Justin’s
growing trust in Max helps the four-legged
veteran revert back to his heroic self, and
as the pair race against time to unravel the
mystery, they find more excitement—and
danger—than they bargained for. But they
each might also find an unlikely new best
friend…in each other.

Second annual German-American Friendship Festival celebrates fun,

Story and photos by Jacob Corbin
U.S. Army Garrison Wiesbaden Public Affairs Office
For the second year in a row, U.S. Army
Garrison Wiesbaden teamed up with the City of
Wiesbaden to hold the German-American Friendship Festival.
The fest, which began June 26 and runs through
July 4, is being held on Hainerberg in the old PX
parking lot and features rides, games, entertainment, and of course, food.
“Wiesbaden residents and our neighboring
communities have been welcoming us to their

prior to the event.
“We work closely with our host nation counterparts on various topics, from aviation to leisure.
The many cultural opportunities offered in the
city and beyond are shared with our community
every week. This really is our home in Germany.”
It’s not just all fun and games though, as the
fest is a great time for Americans and their German neighbors to get to know each other while

enjoying all it has to offer, according to U.S.
Army Europe Commanding General Lt. Gen.
Ben Hodges.
“Tonight we have the great opportunity to meet
our neighbors in Wiesbaden and the surrounding communities,” Hodges said at the opening
ceremonies. “It is an honor that you [our German
neighbors] are celebrating with us.”
Hodges added that he hoped everyone would
go home, after the fest opening, having met
someone from the other nation that they had
not met yet.
Gabriele Wolf, city counselor and representative of the lord mayor of the City of Wiesbaden
at the opening ceremony, echoed General Hodges
statements on friendship.
“We, the City of Wiesbaden, are happy about
the great relationships we have with you,” she
said. “We are happy you have organized the festival and invited us out to it. People are excited
to come back.”
The festival is open to everyone and runs
from noon to midnight everyday through July 4.
The community is invited to watch fireworks at
approximately 11 p.m. at the German-American
Friendship Fest on Hainerberg. There will also be
live music from noon until midnight. Visit www.

Not much is known about those who lived some 2,500
years ago in Europe. While Roman historians described
the Celts as head hunters and fierce warriors, modern historians have attempted to gain a more rounded depiction
of those who resided throughout Europe living in farming
communities, as shepherds and creating handicrafts that
are still admired to this day.
A visit to the Keltenwelt am Glauberg (Celtic World
on the Glau Mountain) offers a glimpse into this ancient
cultural heritage.
Located northeast of Frankfurt, near the former
U.S. military community in Büdingen, the Keltenwelt
museum and surrounding open-air exhibits provide a
unique way for people of all ages to explore this littleknown civilization.
A giant burial mound, surrounded by intriguing
trenches (possibly used by ancient priests) is set among
rolling fields of bright yellow rapeseed plants. Overlooking this vast pastoral landscape is the museum which
features a collection of jewelry, weapons, a complete
statue of a Celtic warrior leader and exhibits detailing
the language, lifestyles and other ties that united this Visitors observe a Celtic warrior leader as depicted
