Ansbach 2012 Community Guide Ansbach 2012 Community Guide U.S. Army Your Army Garrison Ansbach Home Welcome Welcome to Ansbach! DEAR NEWCOMER, Welcome to Your New Army Home – US Army Garrison Ansbach! I think you’ll find Ansbach a wonderful area to live, train, work and play. Throughout the garrison and the surrounding communities, you’ll find that people are friendly and always willing to lend a helping hand. The local officials and agencies stand ready to help make life wonderful for our Soldiers, Civilians and Family Members. I ask you to get involved Kelly J Lawler with the great team we have here. COL, LG Commanding Volunteerism is alive and well in Ansbach; the garrison and community benefits from people helping people. We also work to be good neighbors in the local German communities through volunteering throughout the area, supplementing local emergency services, adhering to all host nation governmental laws and regulations, and shopping, living and having fun among our hosts. TOUCH sessions are held on a regular basis where community members can take part in a discussion with me in order to address the community’s concerns and brainstorm any solutions to problems that arise. In addition, we provide a number of publications such as the FMWR Community Guide, the Franconian News and regular Facebook updates to ensure that you are informed on community happenings. We are striving to improve quality of life in Ansbach through a large variety of construction projects that you will see throughout this garrison. The new Urlas Family Housing Area, opened in June of 2011 and has 106 bright and roomy homes with a garage and a yard. Urlas is also the site of our new Post Exchange and commissary, scheduled to open this fall. And a new state-of-the-art Automotive Skills Center is scheduled to open in December 2012. On Bismarck Kaserne, new barracks are being built to better serve our Soldiers, while across the street at Katterbach Kaserne you can see a new Child Development Center being built. Plans are also underway to build a new fitness center for Soldiers and their Families. At Storck Barracks, there is the new Col. Louis J. Storck Community Activity Center, which opened in June of 2011. In it, you’ll find Army Community Service, a small theater and dance studio, and plenty of space for functions. And lastly, a new self-service car wash, a brand new Child Development Center scheduled to open next spring, the Storck Bowling Center renovation and a new Warrior Zone highlight our current construction projects at Storck Barracks which will improve quality of life for Soldiers and Families there. We have wonderful schools here in Ansbach, with a full staff of teachers and various faculty members that ensure that your children receive a top-notch education. Strong communities are built on strong schools; the small size of our schools combined with the caring nature of those who work in them means that children receive personalized help in learning and in dealing with issues such as the challenges of living overseas and the deployment of parents. Enjoy your tour here, make full use of the support the garrison provides and please let us know if there is something we can do to better your assignment with us. It’s my mission to lead this community by taking in all of your suggestions and making them a reality. I believe in effective communication and the common sense ideal of treating others as you want to be treated. Welcome to your new army home! Kelly J. Lawler COL, LG Commanding Welcome 3 Content Table of Contents WELCOME ............................................................................................3 MOVING DOESN’T MEAN 3 38LEAVING FAVORITE SHOWS ............................................ 38 TH US ARMY GARRISON ANSBACH: Kasernes.......5 12 COMBAT AVIATION BRIGADE — 5 39“WINGS OF VICTORY” ............................................................. 39 HOUSING ................................................................................................8 WELCOME BY ANSBACH 8 40OBERBÜRGERMEISTERIN CARDA SEIDEL ... 40 GETTING READY TO HIT THE ROAD: WELCOME BY ILLESHEIM BÜRGERMEISTER 11Driving in Germany ......................................................................... 11 42HEINRICH FÖRSTER ................................................................. 42 PARKING IN GERMANY ..................................................... 15 DOS AND DON’TS IN GERMANY................................. 46 15 46 Illustration Helicopter S.4: http://www.vecteezy.com/war-military/31718-helicopter-vector 17FUEL RATION CARDS IN GERMANY ................. 17 48GERMAN SURVIVAL PHRASES ..................................... 48 PROVIDER NETWORK ENSURES METRIC MEASUREMENTS ................................................ 53 18MEDICAL CARE ......................................................................... 18 53 25DODDS SCHOOL INFORMATION ............................25 55WELCOME TO MARKT LICHTENAU ....................... 55 WELCOME TO CHILD, YOUTH ASSIGNMENT OPENS DOOR 26AND SCHOOL SERVICES ................................................ 26 56TO A EUROPEAN ADVENTURE ..................................... 56 COMMUNITY PETS ARE TAKEN CARE OF .....27 WELCOME TO 27 58WOLFRAMS-ESCHENBACH .............................................. 58 FAMILY AND MORALE, WELFARE AND RIDING THE RAILS IN GERMANY .............................. 60 28RECREATION ................................................................................. 28 60 ARMY COMMUNITY SERVICE IMPRESSIONS ................................................................................... 62 32WELCOMES YOU! .................................................................... 32 62 SORT IT! — SEPARATE YELLOW PAGES .............................................................................. 66 35AND RECYCLE TRASH....................................................... 35 66 COMMUNITY TAX CENTERS EASE PAIN MAP OF SURROUNDING POSTS ................................. 67 37OF FILING TAXES ..................................................................... 37 67 4 Content www.ansbach.army.mil Kasernes US Army Garrison Ansbach: Kasernes US ARMY GARRISON ANSBACH has five different Kasernes in its footprint.

Biological Sciences Communication Project. SPONS AGENCY ERIC Clearinghouse on Library and Information Sciences, Minnt.auolis, Minn.; Federal Library Committee, Washington, D.C. PUB DATE Oct 70 NOTE 283p. EDRS PRICE EDRS Price MF-$1.25 HC-$14.25 DESCRIPTORS *Directories, *Government Libraries, *Libraries, *National Libraries, School Libraries, Special Libraries ABSTRACT This Roster of Federal Libraries represents an attempt by the Federal Library Committee to identify each of the more than 1,900 individual libraries serving the many departments, committees, agencies, courts, and other formal organizational entities in the Federal Government. They include six types: Presidential, national, general, academic, school, and special or technical. Part I of the three part roster is arranged, alphabetically, within the designated Branches of the Government, then by country, state and city. Part II provides a geographic arrangement, first by country alphabetically, then by state, city, department and bureau. Part III is a listing, alphabetically, by general subject category or type of library. Within the subjects the libraries are arranged by country, state, city, department and bureau. A descriptive explanation and index to contents precedes each of the three parts. A National Plan for Federal Library Statistics has been designed by the Federal Library Committee's Subcommittee on Statistical Programs. It is scheduled for testing in fiscal year 1971 and implementation starting in fiscal year 1972. The Plan will permit accurate, annual identification of Federal libraries. Rosters, based upon information received, will be issued on a regular basis.

  • Army Drawdown and Restructuring: Background and Issues for Congress
    Army Drawdown and Restructuring: Background and Issues for Congress Andrew Feickert Specialist in Military Ground Forces February 28, 2014 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R42493 Army Drawdown and Restructuring: Background and Issues for Congress Summary On January 26, 2012, senior DOD leadership unveiled a new defense strategy based on a review of potential future security challenges, current defense strategy, and budgetary constraints. This new strategy envisions a smaller, leaner Army that is agile, flexible, rapidly deployable, and technologically advanced. This strategy will rebalance the Army’s global posture and presence, emphasizing where potential problems are likely to arise, such as the Asia-Pacific region and the Middle East. As part of the Administration’s original proposal, two armored brigade combat teams (ABCTs) in Europe were to be eliminated out of a total of eight BCTs that would be cut from Active Army force structure. The Army had originally stated that it might cut more than eight BCTs from the Army’s current 44 Active BCTs. Army endstrength would go from 570,000 in 2010 to 490,000 by the end of 2017. As part of this reduction, the Army would no longer be sized to conduct large- scale, protracted stability operations but would continue to be a full-spectrum force capable of addressing a wide range of national security challenges. The Army National Guard and Army Reserves were not targeted for significant cuts. On June 25, 2013, the Army announced it would cut 12 BCTs from the Active Army as well as a number of unspecified support and headquarters units.

  • US Signals Intelligence (SIGINT) Activities in Japan 1945 – 2015: a Visual Guide
    The Nautilus Institute for Security and Sustainability US signals intelligence (SIGINT) activities in Japan 1945 – 2015: A Visual Guide Desmond Ball and Richard Tanter Nautilus Institute for Security and Sustainability Special Report 23 December 2015 Summary The US maintained signals intelligence (SIGINT) activities at about 100 sites in Japan during the Cold War, probably than in any other country. In Japan today, about 1,000 US personnel are engaged in SIGINT, Information Operations, Internet surveillance and Network Warfare activities, mainly at Yokusuka, Misawa, Yokota Air Base in Tokyo, Camp Hansen and Kadena Air Base in Okinawa, and the US Embassy in Tokyo. The US SIGINT activities in Japan have directly supported US nuclear war planning, Korean War and Vietnam operations, and since September 2011, the ‘Global War on Terror’. The technological developments over these seven decades have been stupendous. The end of the Cold War coincided with the beginning of the World Wide Web and the Internet age. Surveillance of the Internet and computer network systems became the highest priority. Intelligence became conflated with operations, with a proliferation of Information Operations (IO) and Cyber- warfare units. There has been no Japanese involvement in the US SIGINT activities, and no direct cooperation between US and Japanese SIGINT stations, apart from limited cooperation with respect to particular crises, and with the partial exception of Camelus at Camp Hansen since 2007. Japan is a Third Party to the UKUSA Agreements under which the US and Japan exchange certain designated intercept materials, including HF/VHF DF bearings, but excluding higher level cryptologic material. Authors Desmond Ball is Emeritus Professor at the Australian National University (ANU).
