The naval telecommunications school was set up by the newly founded Bundeswehr in Flensburg - Mürwik after the Second World War . The school's predecessor was the news school , from which it took over the buildings.

history

On July 15, 1956, the buildings of the former news school were taken over by the Naval Telecommunications School. It was directly subordinate to the naval telecommunications command / command of the naval command services or the admiral of the naval command services and from October 1, 1973 to the head of the naval authority. The specialist training for officers, NCOs and men took place at the Naval Telecommunications School. It included the operation and maintenance of telecommunication equipment and training in telecommunication procedures, locksmithing and ship and aircraft identification services.

On January 1, 1973, the Naval Training Battalion 1 in Eckernförde-Carlshöhe was reclassified after its dissolution on December 31, 1972 to the "Basic Training Teaching Group" of the Naval Telecommunications School. The basic training encompassed the application series of telecommunications operations (21) and intelligence (22), signal operations (27), radio communication (29) and data processing operations (66).

The telecommunications school was closed in September 2002 after the location in Eckernförde had been given up in 2001. Part of the training was relocated and integrated to the marine technology school in Parow and the other part to the naval operation school in Bremerhaven . Shortly after the telecommunications school was closed, the Bundeswehr Strategic Reconnaissance School moved into the premises. An erected boat mast on one of the buildings still reminds of the former presence of the Navy .

Former

The best-known former student of the telecommunications school is Mike Krüger , who completed his basic training in 1973 with the telecommunications operator of the Fleet Command in Meierwik and then went to the school in Mürwik for special basic training. In his free time he played music there with his five roommates, three of whom could also play guitar. Afterwards, he and his roommates did the rest of the military service as a radio operator for Marinefliegergeschwader 1 in Jagel , where he wrote, for example, the song Ich bin Bundeswehrsoldat, a great guy .
