List of British military bases in Germany
 |
British Armed Forces locations and airfields in Germany in 1990 |
Main gate of the Wentworth barracks in Herford, from 1994 to 2015 the headquarters of the 1st British Armored Division , from which the British forces in Germany were commanded.
The list of British military locations in Germany lists all military facilities of British units in Germany, both closed and existing. In order to preserve the originality, the place names - as far as it seemed reasonable - follow the names used by the British armed forces (i.e. later community reforms are not taken into account).
The associations were subordinate to the following high command:
- BAOR = British Army of the Rhine (British Land Forces in Germany), JHQ Rheindahlen .
The British land forces maintained their headquarters in Lübbecke and Bad Oeynhausen from 1945 to 1958, and in Rheindahlen from 1954 to 1993. BFG (British Forces in Germany) was the organizational element of the British Army, the Royal Air Force and the civil support units in Germany. The heart of the complex in Rheindahlen is the JHQ (Joint Headquarters) - "The Big House" - which is shared by three HQs BFG, ARRC and MND (C). On May 1, 1994, the Rhine Army was dissolved and the remaining forces were reclassified to ARRC (Allied Rapid Reaction Corps).
- RAFG = Royal Air Force Germany (British Air Force in Germany), JHQ Rheindahlen . At the end of the war, the British Air Force initially carried out occupation tasks as BAFO (British Air Force of Occupation), which were established on July 15, 1945 from two TAF (Second Tactical Air Force). The headquarters were initially in Bad Eilsen, in 1948 in Bückeburg, and from October 1954 in Rheindahlen. In September 1951, two TAFs were reactivated instead of BAFO and on January 1, 1959 they were reclassified to HQ RAFG.
