ChrisP reminded me of one occasion in Duisburg. I had joined the RCT TA after leaving regular service and the advance party had travelled from Rotterdam to Duisburg under the command of one of our Regular PSI's, an SSM who boasted he could find any RCT barracks in BAOR. We were swanning around Duisburg for about 30 mins before we found the barracks and as my vehicle entered the camp area the SSM was seen paying off a civvy taxi-driver!!
Cost him a few beers in the Mess that night I can tell you.

Noch ein bier,

Norman.

Top stuff

I still have mine from 1989 showing the DDR border, on my office wall as a constant reminder of the "good ole" days. Visitors are always fascinated by how it looked back then compared to now.

I did have a post border BFG road map but donated it to an exhibition of British in Germany

Anyhoo for those who are interested and want to reminice here is a pic below :-)

Revision due to site address update!


This 1:500,000 scale map series has no grids but is useful to orientate users:

Map coverage of NW Europe (Germany) on 1:100,000 Map sheets bearing
Nord de Guerre Grid (ideal for transcribing sites mentioned in After Action
Reviews** (US) , War Diaries (BR & Cdn), - the Germans used Gaus-Krueger
Grid* on their standard 1:25,000 maps - and the Allies converted to these maps
as occupation and interface with emerging administration progressed:
*(In some federal states of Germany Gaus-Krueger is replaced by UTM. In other federal states the replacement of Gauss-Krueger by UTM will still take some time. In the federal state of Bavaria (where Munich is located) the replacement of Gauss-Krueger by UTM will not take place before 2016.)** US Forces advanced so quickly they often outstripped map re-supply and usedmotorists' road maps liberated from petrol stations along their movement routes -there are fewer grids recorded in AAR and more place name spelling variations.
