Far across the blue water lives an old German's daughter By the banks of the old river Rhine Where I loved her and left her but I can't forget her I miss my pretty Fraulein Fraulein, Fraulein, look up toward the heavens Each night when the stars start to shine By the same stars above you, I swear that I love you you are my pretty Fraulein

When my memories wander a-way over yonder To the sweetheart that I left behind In a moment of glory a face comes before me The face of my pretty Fraulein Fraulein, Fraulein, walk down by the river Pretend that your hand's holdin' mine By the same stars above you I swear that I love youYou are my pretty Fraulein

Ps, I was advised by Bob Anders, that Bobby Helms originally did
"Fraulein" and it was the #1 hit song for awhile.

Pictures of 11th Medical Battalion's Stetten Kaserne in Munich Germany. "GENE KOLENSKI" who served with Ambulance Co. 1955 - 1957, advised the name of our Kaserne was"STETTEN".  ---   Our APO was 29 and then changed to APO 112. I have been advised by James Campbell who also served with Ambulance Co. 1955 - 1958, and who recently visited the Kaserne (1997 and 1998) that the street address is 35 Schwere-Reiter Strasse. It is all civilian now, and rented out to small business. If you were in the 11th Medical Battalion or know anyone who was in the 11th Medical Battalion PLEASE EMAIL ME NOW     AT:   magro@hiwaay.net
