It would be great to see some of the 11th ACR bases around Fulda. Historically, 11th ACR had three squadrons spread out between Bad Hersfeld, Bad Kissingen, and the city of Fulda itself with the 4th squadron being an air cavalry squadron based at an airfield in Fulda. Currently Bad Kissingen and Bad Hersfeld do not have any barracks and Downs Barracks in Fulda appears to be a Bundeswehr barracks and does not look much like Downs Barracks did in the 80s, the airfield in Fulda seems accurate but just has German equipment. Daley Barracks in Bad Kissingen and McPheeters Barracks in Bad Hersfeld don't have too many good pictures but I was able to find some of Downs Barracks and a hand drawn map of the barracks.

Yes, agree.  And, while we are at it, Ray Barracks, Ayers, Schloss and Coleman Kasernes.  We have to have somewhere to stage from....  And some kind of Depot in Giessen.  (The 8th ID guys probably want some love, too, but hey, they are grunts so they might not be able to use the computer....)
