Ghost Stories & Paranormal Encounters

In 1974, when I was in the US army stationed in Stuttgart Germany I was visited by my Grandfathers Ghost. I was in our barracks on a winter afternoon when I looked out the window of our room and saw my Grandfather looking in. As my Grandparents liked to travel a lot I thought nothing of it and assumed that they were here in Germany to visit me. I put my boots and field jacket on as it was both cold and there was a lot of snow on the ground and went outside to talk to my Grandfather and Grandmother. When I got around to the other side of the barracks, the ground had no footprints on it except the ones I was making.

I went to the Orderly room and asked if I had had any visitors, and their response was no I had not had any. I went back into the barracks and went back to reading.

Later that evening I got a telephone call from my Mother. She told me that her father had died that afternoon in the hospital suddenly.

I asked her what time it was and where he had died. We compared times and according to my Mother my Grandfather had died at about the same time I saw him in Germany. Two other people in my room (my roommates) also saw my Grandfather looking in the window and swore that he looked as real and solid as we did.
