A Stars and Stripes exclusive article detailing recent newspaper articles covering a special report on the May 24 bombing at Campbell Barracks in Heidelberg. The articles noted that it was believed that Baader himself drove one of the cars onto the base in Heidelberg; parking it next to the computer building where the bomb in the car killed three Americans. One paper indicated that Gerhard Müller, a group member who had been arrested with Ulrike Meinhof, had worked at Campbell Barracks as an electrician from December 14, 1970 to April 26, 1971.
The article also noted that German police investigated 5,000 propane distributors to find out where the propane bottles used in the bombs were purchased.
