There have been two formations named British Army of the Rhine(BAOR). Both were originally occupation forces in Germany, one after the First World War, and the other after the Second World War.

The secondBritish Army on the Rhine was formed on 25August 1945 from 21st Army Group. Its originalfunction was to control the corps districts which were running the militarygovernment of the British zone of occupied Germany. After the assumption of government by civilians,it became the command formation for the troops in Germany only, rather thanbeing responsible for administration as well.[4]

As thepotential threat of Soviet invasion acrossthe North German Plain into West Germany increased, BAORbecame more responsible for the defence of West Germany than its occupation. Itbecame the primary formation controlling the British contribution to NATO after theformation of the alliance in 1949. Its primary combat formation was British I Corps. From 1952 the commander-in-chief of the BAOR wasalso the commander of NATO\'s Northern Army Group (NORTHAG) in the event of a general war withthe Soviet Union and the WarsawPact. The BAOR was formerly armed with tactical nuclear weapons.[5]

The 1993 Options for Change defence cuts resulted in BAOR being replacedby the 25,000 strong British Forces Germany (BFG) in 1994.[6] Garrisons whichclosed at this time included Soest (home of the 6th Armoured Brigade),[7] Soltau (home of the 7th Armoured Brigade)[8] and Minden (home of the 11th Armoured Brigade).
