Comments: I was in the 69th Engineer Co. Topo stationed outside
of Frankfurt, Germany from about 2/1968 til sometime in
'69 or '70 when we were dis-banded and transferred to
the 656th Topo Battalion in Schwetzingen outside of
Heidelburg. I have photos of the Breaking up Party we
had to celebrate the occasion plus other photos I took
around the barracks I'm going to post on the web if
anyone is interested

Comments: I was a TOPO soldier from 1966-77 (656th, 66th,
524th, 649th) while serving with the 1/2 ID in 1983 I
went to the 69th to try to bum some maps. I got to
see SFC Ralph Gordon - who I had worked with in the
649th in Germany. He wouldn't give me any maps. This
must have been shortly before they deactivated.
