Thanks. Stationed and lived in Chievres from '77 to '83. Traveled this road so many times! Two of my kids were born in the SHAPE hospital. Three of them went to preschool and kindergarten in a little town on the other side of Chievres. Some of the best years of my life. Merci beaucoups!!
Lived in Daumerie Caserne behind the bar back in 2004. They were just finishing up the new barracks on the air base then. Very fond memories of that place.
Thanks for sharing your video. I’ve enjoyed watching it. I was stationed at SHAPE with assignment to 80th ASG (NSSG) 1994 - 1997 and worked at the DOL at Daumeri Casserne. It's nice to see my old stomping grounds. I can see that it has change little since I left.
I'm a Flemish woman living between Brussels and Antwerp and I do hope that you all who are stationed here visit Belgium as it is. And please don't eat in that Chinese restaurant I certainly wouldn't even think about it. Please visit our beautiful cities like Gent, Leuven, Brussel, Mechelen, Antwerpen, Brugge.
SO nice to see this! Especially as you got close to Chievres, as my parents both worked there (my mom ran the bookstore on base for a number of years), and Brugelette (we lived just over the railroad tracks, and before that in Ath). I hope I get to take my kids there to see it in person one day. :-)
You forgot to tell the people about Right/Before left and priority roads. It looked like during the turn you slowed down due to confusion of the rule, Right before left or priority road sign. Good quality vid, I'm impressed. I need to post some of my Germany driving vids and my tour of Normandy, France.
wow cool. Rue de Ath??? i think??? i lived in Lens from 84-87. my parents worked on Chevs air base. I went to SHAPE H.S. Spartans. i just looked for youtube vids of this by chance and found this one. great footage. brings back a lot of memories!!! :)
Thanks a lot to shear this video, many people don't take then time to do this, it is nice of you to share it.........you life in Belgium at the moment?..............I moving there and I will love to have some info about good areas to live
Love the fact that you did not film any of the security entrances!! BIG THUMBS UP!!! Feel free to post your vids on U.S. Military Wives in Belgium site FACEBOOK... -SHAPE_ US ARMY WIFE :)
Chiev is so distasteful,new people make think it is a different town.if your last name was brown should we call you bro?think of other people before you shorten names. I known you must be young and have been a lot of places that if your spouse were not in the military you would be back on i don't know maybe the fram? Grow up and think of other people. You were lost when you first got to SHAPE. Oh and talk with a more up beat tone,you sounded as if you did not want to be there. You should have shown more street name signs. Just saying

My mom made that drive with us so many times in two years of living there. Those were the days. Thank you for sharing.

Was stationed at Cheivres from 1987-90. Didn't recognize some things. Was Noel's bar still by the main gate?

Wow, haven't seen since 1978; little looks familiar, but fun to revisit; thanks!
There 1976 - 1979, wow what a trip down memory lane.
LOL I used to live in Obourg-Saint Denis when I went to school there. Remember the Patisserie shop out by Chievres. Delicious strawberry tarts.
