Langenhagen Barracks

Anyone served here?

I was at 63 Station Wksps 78 to 81 and lived on Stettiner Weg.

I have been told it is no more and has been built over. Also that the old BMH has been converted into luxory apartments.

Can anyone remind me where the Hannover Station Sgts mess was.
For the life of me I cannot remember what road it was on.

The Sgt's Mess was in Willestrasse.
When this closed down it was in Lgh Bks in the Wksp Canteen

Hello
Don Walton here i am retired Cdn Forces 1957-1985.I created a RCASC Family Tree Site in 2010.This site is in aditionto the Main RCASC Site that can be found on the web.The reason for this entry is that i am trying to follow the path of 55 Cdn Tpt Coy RCASC that were part of the 27 Cdn Infantry Brigade Group.In searching the specific Barrack that they were in was called Stonehenge Barracks.So far i have not been able to locate this particuler Barrack which of course was part of the BAOR at the time. I do know that some of the Units were in the following Barracks.London Barracks being one where the HQ of 27 CIB was located and some of the Cdn Highland units were in Chatham Barracks. I have recently found out that there was a North Chatham Barracks am i to sasume that there was a South Chatham Baracks.I have pictures of the main 55 Tpt Coy RCASC,HQ Platoon,Wksp Platoon and A Platoon all signifying that they were in Stonehenge Barracks. Was the name Stonehenge another name for Langenhagen.Can you please try to clear this matter up for me.

Welcome

Was your unit responsible for the organisation of British Forces Post Office 33?

yes.bfpo33 Hannover.good posting but only 20 or so sappers.

I was stationed at Langenhagen Bks, Hanover (yes, BFPO33) circa 1973-1975 in 205 PCCU RE supporting HQ 1 BR Corps. In those days our strength was some 100+. It was a good posting with geographical responsibilities ranging from Kiel to Sennelager with Bielefield "in between" and also through the road corridor (or by train) to Berlin....interesting!
