City of Frankfurt, Germany
Frankfurt am Main, Germany
Frankfurt lies in the former American Occupation Zone and at one time, served as headquarters for the U.S. Army in Germany. At the height of the Cold War, some 100,000 U.S. military service members were stationed in and around Frankfurt. The city's geographic location is a straight line from the Fulda Gap: The most likely place of an invasion of West Germany by the Soviet Military and their East Block allies. The defense of the Fulda Gap and by default, Frankfurt itself, was charged to the service men and women of the heaviest, U.S. Army division ever fielded, the historic 3rd Armored Division, SPEARHEAD!
Frankfurt am Main, meaning Frankfurt on the Main River, has long been the financial and transportation hub of Germany and Western Europe. Frankfurt is the seat of the European Central Bank, the German Federal Bank, the DAX Stock Exchange and many large industrial companies. Frankfurt's Airport is one of the world’s busiest and the Frankfurt Hauptbahnhof is one of the largest rail terminal stations in Europe. Frankfurt's population is around 650,000, of which a full 1/3 are foreigners. During the work week, the population swells to over 1.2 million persons.
