I was stationed at Montieth barracks and worked in the motor-pool. the courses were held a Merrell Barracks on the opposite side of Nuremburg. That in itself was a challenge. Limited degree programs were offered, one of which was automotive technology. With a primary MOS of wheeled and a second of track mechanics a third of welding you can guess which program I selected. After completing 12 credit hours you could challenge the final of a course for half the price, you had to score a much higher percentile on the exam than required if you took the course though. After challenging a few I was offered the job of instructing the lab portions of a few of the courses I had challenged. It didn't pay much but enough to allow me to challenge more courses and take others. Instructing was tough since I had to actually study the course and stay ahead of the chapters I was instructing. In the end I think I probably made more than I spent I also received credit for the various Military schools I had attended prior.
    Never try to tell me it can't be done
