| We lived in the Bothfeld Kaserne for a short while in 1948 when it was known as 125 Transit Camp. We later moved into quarters in Spilker Strasse, Klefeld. My sister was christened in the Bothfeld church in June 1948. | |

By wanton destruction, the buildings are unfortunately all in a bad state. The terrain while attempted to secure, which is pretty difficult but of course on the size. It was started to renew parts, but also there was before the vandalism not just made… | |

| Bothfeld Kaserne Hannover
Was called Wavell Barracks by Brit Forces and it housed 125 Transit Camp (handy for the airfield and rail traffic) - handed back 1956 it had previously been called General-Wever-Kaserne and run by the Luftwaffe. | |
