Fort George G. Meade: The First 100 Years

Info

184 THE FIRST 100 YEARS John Murray – 526 th MP Company One of our guys went bad. One day, he stole a marked MP car. If that wasn’t bad enough, he also took smoke and tear gas grenades. Then he drove north on the Baltimore Washington Parkway, tossing smoke grenades out the window as he drove along. When the Maryland State Police brought him back in handcuffs, the guy was kicking, biting and really being difficult. This was a guy we knew. We’d eaten meals together, worked with him, so that made it hard to understand. Since our unit ran the stockade, that was where this guy ended up. I’m sure it wasn’t fun for him, especially when other prisoners found out he was an MP!
Jerry Glodek – Army Field Band SCRAPBOOK MEMORIES I was inducted into the Army in the fall of 1971 and served proudly as many in my family had done before me. Being a local farm boy, the only time I left the Fort Meade/Severn area was when I was in the Army, but I eventually came back and was assigned to The United States Army Field Band where I joined my Uncle Dominick Macaluso who was a world class “Big Bands” sliding trombonist and Sergeant Major Administrative Assistant to the commanding officer. After my military service, I worked as a farmer at our farm on Disney Rd. and our family Country Store Manager. My civilian work life at Fort Meade began in 1993 when I was hired as a Swimming Pool Operator and Water Distribution Operator at the Water Treatment Plant. While going to college at night, I worked my way to become the Superintendent of that facility. I’ve moved on to work in the Environmental Office of Fort Meade as an Environmental Protection Specialist and the post’s Cultural Resource Manager. (Below) 3 rd Regiment Band. 185 John Murray – Nightlife With great regularity, the cavalry units would rotate back to Fort Meade from Vietnam. They were the 1st, 2nd, 6th, 9th, and 11th Armored Cavalry units. I can tell you, each group arrived stateside all wound up, toughened and used to doing a little hand-to-hand combat. These guys were also thirsty for women and booze. Boomtown, on Hwy 175, had its share of nearby off-base bars that were happy to oblige their desires. Clubs like “Triple-Nickle (555), or Six-o-Deuce (602) were somewhere on the other side of the fence. Farther up 175 was Blob’s Park, Max Blob’s beer garden complete with oompha band music and German drinking songs. There was Tagliatelas Dairy Land and Henkels had great huge sandwiches. The Rhapsody Club was for drink, dance and women.
