Third installment of our drive from just outside the town of Hessisch Oldendorf, West Germany to our base, Hessisch Oldendorf Air Station where we continue the walking tour of the base. I replaced the previous file with a better quality one. Hope you enjoyed this little trip back in time!
Wow, what memories. I was stationed there from 1980 - 1985 & I see some changes (road in front of BX was one-way THE OTHER WAY). Building facelifts too. I even remember driving those Mercedes buses to Schwelentrup (I was in the 629th) every three weeks or so. Loved my entire time there - wish I would have stayed.

This is the place where I live for my whole life! It's so interesting to see it in 1989, because I was born in 1991 and I really can't remember how it was then, in the time when I was a little girl because so many things have changed here. Thank you so much for this tour!

Thank you for posting this video. I was stationed at Hessisch Oldendorf in 1978 and 1979. Although some things had changed from my time period, it still brought back memories.

This is where I lived from 1976 to 1979. I attended high school in Wiesbaden, and Bremerhaven, and was in the first graduating class from Olsterholz-Sharmbeck High School.
