Nobody really knows who they are, nobody really appreciates what they do unless it doesn\u2019t get done,\u201d said Michael Daniels, deputy to the garrison commander.\u00a0\u201cThis is just a great opportunity to bring the team together, have some fun, relax and celebrate all of their accomplishment over the winter season and to say thank you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen we are all able to stay home and enjoy the warmth of our homes, they brave the wind and the snow and clear the roads for us,\u201d said John Sturtz, director of public works. \u201cThis is our small token of appreciation for them for their efforts.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This event covered Tower Barracks and Rose Barracks. Similar events are scheduled to take place in Hohenfels and Garmisch.<\/p>\n<p>During the event, leadership took the opportunity to farewell Wilhelm Lindner, who had his last day of work before retirement. Lindner worked with USAG Bavaria for 19 years as a cement finisher leader\u00a0at the Rose Barracks roads and grounds shop.<\/p>\n<div class=\"editor-image single\">\n<figure class=\"photo cur-photo\">\n          <span class=\"centered-image\"><br \/>\n            <span class=\"img-container\"><br \/>\n              <a class=\"rich-text-img-link\" href=\"https:\/\/api.army.mil\/e2\/c\/images\/2023\/04\/11\/8783049b\/original.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n                <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"USAG Bavaria holds luau for ice, snow removal team\" src=\"https:\/\/adn.monetizemail.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/size0-full-82.jpg\" \/><br \/>\n              <\/a><br \/>\n                          <\/span><br \/>\n          <\/span><figcaption>\n                        <span class=\"image-caption\"><br \/>\n              <span class=\"caption-text\"><br \/>\n                Michael Daniels, deputy to the garrison commander, gives Wilhelm Lindner a certificate of appreciation on his last day of work during the DPW luau.<br \/>\n                <span class=\"caption-author\"> (Photo Credit: Ella Haendel)<\/span><br \/>\n              <\/span><br \/>\n              <a href=\"https:\/\/api.army.mil\/e2\/c\/images\/2023\/04\/11\/8783049b\/original.jpg\" title=\"View original\" target=\"_blank\">VIEW ORIGINAL<\/a><br \/>\n            <\/span><br \/>\n          <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>John Sturtz, director of public works, gives out food to the snow and ice removal crew members during the USAG Bavaria DPW luau, March 31, 2023.
