Do you remember the time frame when you were in Amberg? Did you spend any time at Gates? Check the pictures on my page and see if anyone looks familiar.

Hello to another '63 alumni. We were there the same time but doubt our paths crossed. Take a look at our Oldtimer group. You may see familiar names or faces.
