Germany at the Paralympics

Germany (GER) participated in the inaugural Paralympic Games in 1960 in Rome, where it sent a delegation of nine athletes. The country, since 1949 officially the Federal Republic of Germany (FRG), was until 1990 also called West Germany while the separate East German Democratic Republic (GDR) existed, which was recognized by the IOC only after 1964. East German athletes, however, participated in the Paralympics for the first and last time in 1984. Following the reunification of Germany in 1990, athletes from all of Germany compete simply as Germany (GER) again.

Alpine skiing at the 1976 Winter Paralympics consisted of 28 events, 15 for men and 13 for women.

He won the bronze medal at the Men's Giant Slalom IV B event, the only event he competed in. [1]
