Would anyone happen to know when 11th ACR got its first M1s while in Germany and what model it was?

Thanks, Chris. I think I saw on this site in another place they got them in 1983, so there is still a small question. I have been spending quite a bit of time on this site lately, it seems, looking for various pieces of info.
