Hi, Val!
First, congratulations!
You are going to love where you are!
Patch is actually in Stuttgart, which is in the DoDDS-E Heidelberg
district. The school you're going to is on Patch Barracks in
Stuttgart, hence the name.
Thanks for the advice! And please keep in touch. If there's
anything I can do to help you (questions about the area, etc.), just
let me know.
