Reversion reasons edit

I reverted the link shown in the infobox back to http://www.sennelager.net. While I accept that the web site is absurdly sparse, it is still the village's official site. http://www.treffpunkt-sennelager is a privately run affair and doesn't belong in there. Sorry.

Necessary Correction edit

Hello, my English is not the best. Therefore it may be better, that another one makes a cerrection.

  • The river "Ems" does not end in Sennelager, but in the near is the spring of the river "Ems". The Ems ends in the North Sea. See: Ems River.

Also You can add a statement about the British Army Golf Club Sennelager , which lies beside the military training area near Bad Lippspringe.

Sennelager, during the days of National Service, was my introduction to BAOR. I was hoping for some indication of who built the barracks we were then in, and when - not least because interms of comfort and practicality they were streets ahead of Aldershot, or even the British built accommodation at Rheindahlen. They were clearly of German design and construction - double glazing, no less - and we instinctively attributed them to the Nazi period, but it would be nice to have that confirmed. Secondly, at the time - 1959 - the British were certainly not the only military around there. Singing platoons of Bundeswehr regularly passed beneath our windows, and individual Bundeswehr personnel would often salute British squaddies, who had been briefed ro return the salutes, which we did, with some embarrassment. Does the German army still get a look-in?Delahays (talk) 11:04, 25 October 2015 (UTC).Reply


After WWII Sennelager was a prison for Germans. 2601:181:8301:4510:4DDC:B775:52EA:36D7 (talk) 03:41, 5 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

Hello Monika, was your grandfather the host of a restaurant in Sennelager and was Lieselotte your mother? If yes, we should make contact. My family lived in Sennelager, too and perhapes we are related. Many greetings, Robert Weicht — Preceding unsigned comment added by Robwei (talkcontribs) 21:48, 12 January 2020 (UTC)Reply
