Pulaski Barracks, Kaiserslautern, Germany


This is a photo of what was between 1961 and 1963 Pulaski Barracks Building 2810, where Spc.-4 Lewis D. Whaley was stationed. With the rear of the building pictured here, Whaley remembers being stationed in the barracks at the lower right-hand corner. As you would enter the front door, Whaley's room was the first room on the right and his bunk was in the rear right corner. With three bunks on each side of the room, Whaley remembers about six soldiers being stationed per room.

Whaley remembers the two small windows beside the barracks windows in the lower right-hand corner as being where the latrine and showers were located between 1961 and 1963. If you were to look out the small windows, you could still see in 1999 the former Armed Forces Network television station tower.

According to public affairs officers stationed at Pulaski Barracks in April 1999, the two-story barracks were then used as office buildings and renovated soldier quarters.
