Welcome
to CookeBarracks.com! A recent poll confirmed
what most of us familiar with Cooke Barracks always
thought: That is, 79% of the 242 respondents said
their time while stationed at Cooke was either "great"
or "the best"; 14% reported "good".
Only 7% reported "not so good", or "not
good". Clearly, Cooke Barracks was a magical
place and, perhaps, that's why so many people visit
CookeBarracks.com. CookeBarracks.com
was born October 2002 and is responsible for
uniting many, many people separated years
ago. |
Our
Mission Statement: To unite friends and share
memories with those who were part of U.S.
Army Cooke Barracks near Goeppingen, Germany. In support of our mission, please find within: |
-
a guestbook roster for everyone to sign and share their
favorite Cooke Barracks memory. With
a little luck, a long-lost friend might
type "cookebarracks.com" into
their web browser, find your entry,
and another reunion will be made. It
actually happens here a lot and more
often than you read about in the guestbook,
too! Even if you don't have a favorite
memory to share, please sign the guestbook to include your full name and the unit
and dates you served. The guestbook
is our only "roster database" for
long lost friends to search for each
other. Lost friends will be able to find you by "Control F" (search feature) the guestbooks (there's one for each year). Please, no advertising.
Please
note the current guestbook (link above) includes
all entries from 1/1/06 to date. But it will be
easier for you to view the archived guestbooks (below)
to see all entries for a complete year on a single
page for the years 2006, 2007, 2008, and 2009. Otherwise,
you'll just see the same entries in the current
guestbook, but viewed at 50 entries to a page (versus
a full year to a page).
- a message
board for everyone to chat about those great
times. Don't forget to sign the Guestbook, too
.
Begin a new discussion by clicking on the "New Topic"
link near the top and right of the page. To respond to an existing discussion, click on the "Message
Subject" and, then, "Reply", also in the top right area of the page. Please, no commercial advertising and no "visit my site" ads. Registration required for this one (see why).
|
- a photo
album; our jewel. Once you click the "photo
album" link (to the left), you'll see a page of photos.
Each photo represents an album containing up to 100 photos.
Click on any of those photos to access the associated album. If you
click on any photo inside the album you'll
see the option to add a public comment to that
photo. Your comments are the
frosting! The photo hosting provider (Google)
requires you sign up for a free Google account
to add photo comments. Signing up takes about
30 seconds. It will mean a great deal to me and everyone here if you will spend the 30 seconds to acquire your free Google account so you can add valuable comments to the photos.

Your
photo contributions will be greatly appreciated! Please contact me to obtain the email address to send photos for posting to the photo albums. If necessary, you can
postal mail your photos to me and I'll scan them
and upload them on your behalf (but it will be very
much appreciated if you can try to arrange for a
friend to scan your photos for you (so I don't become
a biological appendage of my scanner). Thank you!!
