In 1986, and almost 30 years ago, a memorial ceremony commemorating the 40th anniversary of the naming of Camp King in honor of the late Colonel Charles B. King was held at Camp King in Oberursel.
My friend, Hanns-Claudius Scharff, generously gave me permission to publish these bits of Camp King memorabilia on the blog.
“My dad, together with author Ray Toliver, were invited to this celebration and the unveiling of a cenotaph in honor of Colonel King.”
Hello Maria, I was there that day for the 40th anniversary as a 22yr old Sp4 and I still can see in my mind. Col. King’s family and all the other people who attended, My barracks was right next to the little cinema and church in one of your previous video’s loved it and Thank you for keeping my memories alive Maria.
