Was given the verbal WARNO this week that the Army is planning to send me to Germany Next Summer, probably September time frame. I'll be in the Baumholder area, and looking forward to connecting with any World members in the area. I've passed through Frankfurt on my way to and from the land of wonder (sarcasm) but other than that only know Ireland and Greece, the Rest of Europe is a mystery. Really looking forward to looking up family origins (Irish, Norwegian, Czeck/German & Italian). In typical Army fashion, I will still deploy to Afgan, return early then over to GE with half a breath of timing in between.... Hopefully will be a 3 year gig. A bit of a surprise, but a good thing. Looking forward to linking up with any World members in advance and while there.
Will bring the 912 but probably will wait till after I am there a bit, get the lay of the land, housing ect. If there is a garage, I will bring it otherwise will store for 3 years...... grrrrr...... Much to plan between now and then. Thought I was going back to the East Coast, but...... |

Thanks Gents. As the date approaches, will likely pop in and get a list of reputable shippers, etc. NOT giving my beauty to the 'lowest bidder' contractor to be stuffed on some low budget ship and sent across the atlantic....... lol

I shipped three cars and several parts from USA to Netherlands and have good and bad names for you from my adventures in case you decide to ship to destination Rotterdam or Amsterdam. Of course this is from my side as importing party, I think there will be guys with more experience on the exporting (USA) side but maybe it helps. |
