Welcome to HOG Mania. This website is dedicated to a United States Air Force base that was
located on the outskirts of a sleepy little town in Northern Germany
called Hessisch-Oldendorf. The main base, as well as a number of
smaller radar sites around the area, had been originally built and
occupied by the Dutch Army in the 1960's. The Dutch moved out at some
point in the early 1970's and we moved in. The U.S. Air Force officially
occupied the base from 1975-1991 at which point it was closed down
permanently. Those of us who were stationed there lovingly referred to
the base as the "HOG", hence the title "HOG Mania". If you were stationed at "the HOG" make sure you
register for an account and post a message to let everyone know what
you've been up to since leaving Hess. |

I have just heard from my friend, Sue Chladek, of Hohenrode that Elvis Bauer has died. He died on Tuesday 14AUG after a long illness. As I get more details, I will post them here. I am sorry to have to inform you all of this. I think that Elvis was liked by one and all.
