A photo is also available.

Further to my previous reply the accommodation and club supplied by Naafi was at Burgstrasse 47, which was and still is a housewares department store. The Gottinger Zeitung has a picture of the building from 1950 when it celebrated its 40th anniversary. This could only have been a few months after the pull-out.

Earlier on I found some posts about the BAOR College at Göttingen, where 'Brian (Berlin-Brian)' aka 'Brian Anthony Thomas' posted some really helpful information about the College, including the front cover and some pages from 'The Goose Girl'. I would like to use that image in a book I am writing about my uncle's time with REME in Germany, where he wrote in a letter that he was applying to the college to do a Commerce course. Please can Brian tell me if I can use the image? I think he hails from Shropshire - so do I.

Brewins Girl. Yes go ahead you can use the image ..

Thank you. How would you like me to acknowledge you as the source of the image?

Hi Brewins Girl

i don´t own the copy right for the magazine ,had it in my collection ,but lost it somewere ..

I think it will have been out of copyright anyway, but I always like to acknowledge the source of information. I will be acknowledging the help I've had from bfg-locations.com - is that acceptable to you?

Yes fine with me..

It would appear copies of the Goose Girl are held at 'The Imperial War Museum'  (IWM. London).


Seems a trip to read them is only way to get copies.  Of course one could order photocopies made and sent, which could be an expensive process?
