Hey Jim, looks like London. If it is, didn't change much (well, until the BTN left) depending on when the picture was taken (in front of Bravo Coy it looks like); I left in '88. Looks the same, right down to the bletchers. ( I remember a few troops falling through the plate class doors by the bletchers during one mufty day in the early '80's (no injuries - it's amazing how much protection a great coat, snot mitts, tokue, & mucklucks can provide); though I found out one can't swim too well with the great coat & mucklucks (with a couple of wooblie pops to keep warm) after being chucked into the pool LOL; - ahh sweet memories

Hi Gerry

Picture taken 1961. I'm glad that no one got hurt when they fell through the plate glass door.Ahhh swiming with your Grey Coat & Mucklucks and to top it off a couple of wooblie pops is hard. I hope you have a couple of sweet memories.
