Illesheim AAF (EDIK) -2012

falcx · Post by **falcx** » 01 Jun 2012, 20:42

During recent visits to Illesheim it has been mentioned that the base is empty.
Now I know that "they" have gone Southbound for 9 months or so, however I do have a few questions;
* As far as I'm aware, only 2/159th Avn went through Ramstein. Is this correct?
* When and/or were did 3/159th Avn go then?

Hope somebody can fill in some gaps..............

Regards,
Charles

Both units and their 48 AH-64D travelling through Ramstein. They are away for 1 or 1.5 years downrange.
Almost all helos from Germany are deployed. So very quiet!

Thanks AMC,
So when did 3/159th start arriving/ departing to/from Ramstein?
If not mistaken, (nearly) all 2/159th were seen between April 18th till May 8th.
