Do hope some one can help me
My husband is re-entering the Army
as an officer and has been told that
his family may accompany him
when he sails the first part of De-
cember for Bremerhaven, Germany
We have two little boys. 4 and 2
years. What can we expect in the
way of housing? What foods are
available? How long does it take to
receive merchandise ordered from a
mail ,order house in the States
What clothing is needed for winter
and summer? What appliances
and for furniture should or can be
taken? I feel that any one who
has lived in Germany with the Army
could help me.
