  • Capt. Spanky's wing run experience

    Hello again Ramstein! This week, I took a little more time off from my travels because I was invited by Brig. Gen. Patrick X. Mordente to participate in the world-famous Ramstein Tri-Wing Run. I was so overjoyed that I immediately went out to the dog house and dug up my PT gear. Now, I admit I don't

  • Capt. Spanky at Neuschwanstein

    Hello Ramstein! I have to say, I've traveled to a lot of countries in the Air Force, but none of them offer the variety, culture and beauty that Germany has to offer. My latest trip here was to a location that was so beautiful, Walt Disney decided to model the castles from his movies after it; and

  • Capt. Spanky's off -leash tour

    Bone-jour, Team Ramstein! This week I'm reporting on my latest stop on the tour: the lovely city of Paris. At 41 square miles, the city is packed full of historical landmarks and attractions worth digging into. Just walking downtown, my human and I could not resist romanticizing about living among

  • Capt. Spanky's off -leash tour

    Hey Ramstein! Anticipating the rain to come for the next few weekends, my human told me he planned a trip to a beach in France ahead of time.

  • Capt. Spanky’s off -leash tour

    Hello Ramstein, Capt. Spanky here. I really do love traveling around Germany and Europe, but I have to say, there is nothing like the sight of Airmen standing guard at the gate when returning to Ramstein. Anyways, this week my human and I got out to Leipzig. If you've never heard of it, Leipzig is

  • Capt. Spanky's off -leash tour

    Hi everyone! I just got back from Normandy. I wanted to travel with the 37th Airlift Squadron to commemorate the 70th anniversary of D-Day, but I was grounded due to an unfortunate incident (I can't help it if I drool on the avionics; I'm a dog after all.) Anyways, my human and I decided to paw the

  • Capt. Spanky meets Sparky the Fire Dog

    Hello Ramstein! It has been a wild week! I'm usually not a huge fan of other dog spokeshounds because, well, we have Capt. Spanky so who needs more right? But when my good friend Sparky the Fire Dog invited me out to celebrate Fire Prevention Week and help spread awareness, I couldn't help but feel

  • Club 7 - Where community comes together

    Having a place to call home is important when transitioning into a new assignment and arguably even more important when transitioning into an overseas assignment. Many refer to Club 7 as their "home away from home."Besides being greeted with a smiling face, the facility within building 2410 features

  • WWII vet gives final salute to friend, lifesaver

    Seventy years ago the world was at war and many lives were lost. June 6, 1944 was a day forever marked in history books as D-Day, the invasion of Normandy, France. There are many tales of heroism from that particular day, but one account has surfaced regarding the day after the initial invasion,
