Not sure if you have this piece of history on Hermann Göring (Flak) Kaserne later Oxford Barracks Münster:
107th (King’s Own) Regiment RAC moved into the barracks on the 29 May 45, I have found evidence from original documentation that the former use was the Rear HQ for the 9th US Army.

Dear Alan (Yates) thank you kindly for your response, I understand the difficulties and I will pass on to Alfred the communication with you, he may need a different strategy it seems ... I and others can only do limited work for him..? .... I was again at depot during your dates with Irish Guards, indeed I spent half of my 13 adult years in training institutions which I enjoyed mixing with so many different Corps and regiments it opens your eyes a little to what a resource we all were and how it has been frittered away, they do a lot currently with so much less and I am proud of them all... our days were truly some of the simplest and happiest .... Apologies for my late reply .. Happy New year to you and all on the site Brian Eager
