I remember when I got stationed in Germany for my first assignment with the USAF back in 1980.
Flew into Frankfurt from NY.
It took my body, both mentally and physically a good three weeks to start to acclimate to the time change.
And I wasn't playing a brutal physical sport, I was twisting wrenches on aircraft!
Ownership should have been researching all aspects of traveling to Europe, even if it were only for a short visit, to ascertain THE BEST scenario for success for our team, most importantly, the physical success!
Remember, their body clock was telling them it was 0930 hrs!
HUGE FAIL HERE FOR BEANE!
