The KMC Red Tails Little League Baseball All-Star team’s quest for the Little League World Series ended last week.

Over the Fourth of July weekend, the KMC Red Tails overcame adversity and persevered to beat Germany’s NRW in a hard-fought two out of three series to win the German Little League National Championship and advance to the European Regional Tournament as Germany’s representative.

On a picture-perfect Sunday, in a beautiful new facility at Clay Kaserne in Wiesbaden, the KMC Little League Baseball Majors division All-Stars — the “Red Tails” — completed a two-day
sweep of the Stuttgart Panthers and Wiesbaden Warriors All-Stars to capture the Little League Baseball District 1 Championship.

Seven brilliant sunrises, seven breath-taking sunsets, 80 locks, 26 lock-keepers, 158 kilometers, 35 French villages, seven Americans and countless memories. This was our boating holiday on the “canal de Bourgogne,” or Burgundy Canal, in central eastern France.

Soldiers, Department of the Army civilians and family members from the 21st Theater Sustainment Command and other organizations in the KMC received mixed martial arts training and the opportunity to meet MMA celebrities during the Armed Forces Entertainment 2014 MMA All-Stars Summer Tour June 19 on Kleber Kaserne in Kaiserslautern.
