At the time, the 3rd Bd 2ID was at the Camp South of us (can't remember the name, but shouldn't be difficult to find out). I'm sorry, I can't tell you what their job was during wartime.

A CSM (one of our ROTC instructors who had spent a lot of time in SF, including a positing to the SFDB) told me that the SFDB's job in wartime was to leave about a platoon inside of West Berlin, and the rest were to exfiltrate through the wall (at points only they knew about) and "go out and cause trouble in East Germany." What trouble he didn't specify.
