Stuttgart
No help with the Type, but you will love the Stuttgart area. Lived there for three years and I'd go back in a heart-beat. I lived south of the airport in Dettenhausen; beautiful area, lots of small villages. Housing can be tough, lots of competition with US EUCOM, U.S. Army, HP, IBM, Daimler and Tubingen University in the area. Good luck, have fun!
Prost!
