Ramstein AB, Germany Installation Guide

KAISERSLAUTERN MILITARY COMMUNITY

Welcome to Ramstein AB and the Kaiserslautern Military Community (KMC). We hope you will learn to love the pleasures of Germany. The delicious food, scenic patchwork countryside, and the historical character will surely make your stay enjoyable.

- Germany is a member of the European Union, situated right in the heart of Europe.  Germany has nine neighboring countries that are all within driving distance: Denmark in the north, Netherlands, Belgium, Luxemburg and France in the west, Switzerland and Austria in the south, and the Czech Republic and Poland in the east. Germany is laced with a variety of landscapes. The Alps lie in the south, and dry sandy lowlands in the north. Rivers and lakes are scattered throughout the entire country.

- The KMC is located in the federal state of Rheinland-Pfalz in the southwest corner of the country. This area is the main wine-growing region for Germany and also known for the largest connected forest, the Palatinate Forest.

- "K-Town" as some call it, is known for being the largest American community in Europe.  Over 53,000 Americans share this community with inhabitants from over 70 nations. The city's historical past has been preserved even though it has grown to become one of the largest industrial and marketing cities in Germany.

- Ramstein, Kapaun, Sembach, and Vogelweh are predominately Air Force communities, which share their services with the other military members of the KMC. Pulaski Barracks, Kleber, Panzer, Daenner, Miesau, Pirmasens, Rhein Ordnance Barracks and Landstuhl, and the Army's Regional Medical Community, all make up this great community.
