Wunderbar! I hit most of those same places. Most memorable character was a German naval captain who had been in UDT in WWII. Told me all about his surrender at war's end, time in a Missouri POW camp, and taking up residence in St Lou after the war, only to be summoned home in '57 to resume his service. Fascinatin' gent! He was then working for German Naval Intelligence. We polished off many a bottle of German and French juice, swappin' lies, etc. Got to meet both his wife and his mistress.

I wouldn't trade that time in Europe for anything in the world! Got to visit every NATO country (of the 16 total at that time) except Turkey and Iceland.
