KITZINGEN, GERMANY
Formerly part of the United States Army Würzburg military community, it was a 1st ID garrison since 1996 and prior to that it was home to 3rd ID 2nd Brigade. Originally built in 1917, the installation served as a training school for German pilots in World War I. The German Luftwaffe used the base a generation later to train the pilots of dive bombers and pursuit planes during World War II. The Americans took control in April 1945 and used it as an air base until being turned over to the 1st ID in 1947.
ARMY BARRACKS 
I was stationed at Harvey Barracks 66th Maintenance Company 1979-1982.
Al Schum – I was a MP, 2nd Plt., 3rd MP Company at Harvey Barracks. from 1976-1977. Great times…served with some great soldiers.
I was there in ‘97, it rained, sleeted, and snowed within an hour. Crazy weather in Kitzingen. I regret that I didn’t travel more or see the castle Disney replicated.
I was stationed At Harvey Barracks from April, 1961 to Fall of 1962 originally in the 525th Engr. Detachment, later known as the 3rd Maintenance Platoon of the 261st Engr. Co. In late 1962 I was transferred to the HQ of the 261st in Furth, near Nurnberg. Kitzingen and Harvey Barracks was a nice place to be. I’d like to go and see it again and we are considering that for August this year (2024).

My name is Spencer Barrett…..The son of an E-9 in the 35th Engineers/Kitzingen. We lived in Army provided housing and I still remember liking it there. I am 75 yrs. old and the time I spent there was in 1955-1957. Fond memories, but seeing all the bombed out destruction in Wurzburg was somewhat depressing.
I was stationed there between 1968 and 1970 Charlie company, Como chief.
Station near headquarters enclosed company, 1973 to 75
was stationed there from 1964 thru 1965 then went back to Ohio on emergency leave in 1965 then went to Ft Hayes in Columbus OHio to finish out my time till 1966
Hi Spencer trying to help a friend find his biological mother. His dad was stationed here in 1957 when he was conceived. Did the maids live in the barracks with the soldiers or service them? I am thinking his mother could of been a German maid servant. My friend’s dads name was Gilbert Aragon if you might have known him. Thank you, Brenda
