415th Base Support Battalion
The 415th Base Support Battalion is in the running for as much as $2 million, which will go back into their KMC programs and services.
The battalion is now competing against five other military communities within Europe at the 2004 Army Communities of Excellence Award for the Installation Management Activity-Europe competition level. They were the only one selected as a semi-finalist out of four BSBs in the 26th Area Support Group.

legend? History, experience and reputation?
C-130 Hercules aircraft, or “Herks” as they are affectionately called, have plenty of each with tons to spare.
Ramstein’s Herks range in age from 34 to 41 years, flying missions today much like the rest of the Air Force’s C-130 fleet have been doing consistently for 50 years.
