"I attended this school. It was in Bangor barracks (formerly Saarburg-Kaserne), which is now part of the University (Freudenberg Campus). My last year there was the last that it was used by the British as a school.
I remember “volunteering” to clear the building during the Summer holidays as it involved smashing up furniture."
