This is my first post on this forum. I am in the process of researching my Father's military service, his Name was Dennis Darvill. He served for 2 years in Germany, 25.03.1959 to 19.11.1961 some or all of was with 5 Coy or 121Coy RASC based at Caernarvon Barracks Dusseldorf. I would be grateful for any information and copies of pictures regarding 5 Coyand 121 Coy, especially if anyone served with my Father and remembers him. He spoke little of his time in the Army but seemed to have fond memories of his time in Germany.
Regards, Dean Darvill

I scratched my head for a while about this, trying to remember another site, et voila; someone's just posted a notice that the revised BAOR locations site is up. Whilst there aren't photographs for every unit, it's here: https://baor-locations.org/
