When I got to the unit it was in its beginning. Some came from Prum others from Kassel to make up what was known as Det 300 Neu Ulm of 601st Tactical Control Squadron.  We were in one of the "dog kennels" of the Army for 2 months until they moved us across town to the barracks I was in.. That area housed the Army Language school, an Army signal unit, and the area MP unit.. I started out as cook and in an Army Mess Hall. We shortly took it over and I became the Mess Sgt. We fed the school, the Army Boxing team, the signal unit, an Army Motor Pool, and our 232 men.. I was there until Jan 66 when I returned to Keesler AFB MS to retrain into 304X0..(Tropo Radio) I also held 304X1 and 304X4.. serving on two IG teams.
