Does anyone know what the name of the Army Base was near Frankfurt, Germany that closed a few years ago? That is where my bio-mother worked.

I believe the base in question was Wiesbaden Army Base. I was stationed at Lindsay AS in the town of Wiesbaden.

I was stationed in Frankfurt in 1982-83. The only base that I know closed was the I.G. Farbin building. Which was the Headquarters for the U.S. Army in Frankfurt. There was another name for it but I can't remember it now. It had a NCO Club, Officers Club, Tailor Shop, Data Processing and all kinds of support facilities.

I just found it...it was called the "Abrams Building". There is a good chance this is the one you are talking about.

I see that your post is recent so this information may be of assistance. It will help if you know what type of unit that was at his Kaserne. http://www.usarmygermany.com/Sont.htm Hope this helps. John
