Was in the 287th and we had MP’s that would ride the duty train but I never had the duty. Worked patrol (line duty) my time there. Did take the duty train to Bremerhaven then onto Sweden to see some relative’s I had never met. Do remember some trading going on when we would take a convoy down to Helmstedt and stop at the checkpoint in the East. Beside’s playboy they also liked our cigarettes and cigarette lighters
