This page contains scans of some old postcards with photos of the Rothwesten air base dating to the Nazi regime. We owe Mr. Bernd Niesel who is the curator of the Museum Währungsreform (Museum of Currency Reform) for the loan of the postcards, and our friend Silvia for her work constructing the Powerpoint presentation for us to see at the 2008 reunion. Silvia's presentation also included pictures of the buildings around the base as they are today.
