When was the Stuttgart US Army base created?
Patch Barracks
AFRICOM was started as a cell within EUCOM and then separated and assigned to nearby Kelley Barracks. The main community PX was relocated to nearby Panzer Kaserne in 2007 due to a lack of parking for both EUCOM staff and the PX shoppers. Other recent activity includes renovations to the housing on base. A highly conspicuous 314-foot (96m) radio tower familiar to generations of staff and visitors was dismantled in May 2009.
