ANSBACH, Germany (May 23, 2014) - Retirees residing within the Franconian Military Community, which includes USAG Ansbach, Bamberg and Schweinfurt, came together for a day in Ansbach for Retiree Appreciation Day on May 22, 2014. This event is hosted by USAG Ansbach once a year to give retirees, who often live spread out between the communities, an opportunity to find important information about organizations and services available to them.

The day at the Von Steuben Community Center began with welcome remarks by the garrison commander, Col. Christopher M. Benson, and continued with briefings and individual information by the different organizations.
