My parents met and married in "Durzyn" in 1947 and left in 1949 for Australia. I have several photos from Wildflecken and they are available for anybody to look at on the following internet sites. There are two albums so there are two different addresses. I would be happy to hear from anybody regarding these. The sites are: www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2004320&l=242a8&id=1279664376 and www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2004032&l=b41dc&id=1279664376.

Chris, The documents I have from Wildflecken are a combination birth/baptism record. They were issued by the Roman-Cath. Parochial Office. If you write to the archive, request a copy of the page from their book. Otherwise they will just send you a form, stating the date of your birth, and your parents' names. The full page on the other hand, will have more information, including what building your parents lived in, as well as the time of your birth, and which hospital the birth took place.

Does anyone have an original birth certificate from Wildflecken. I have one but it states it was issued by the State of New York Dept of Health. More than likely this was created when my stepfather adopted me after marrying my Mother here in the states. I am currious as to what an origianl looks like. Maybe if you have an original you can send me a photo so I can see. Otherwise I will try to get a copy from Germany. I also don't think the information is correct but another instance of bad interpretation from German to English.

I was stationed at Wildflecken (pronounced Wild-Flicken by US Service Members) in 1989 and 1990. It was really quite ironic as this was considered bad duty by others in Germany, I included, but once I was “permit party” this was a really good assignment. We lived by the range, so didn’t have to travel. When we went to the field, we were home in 30 minutes. The PX and Commissary were nothing to write home about, but most everything we needed was there, and it was a very tight community. All in all, I enjoyed my time there, and felt it was a lot better than my time in Frankfurt or Darmstadt….
Very cold though. This place set the standard on TA-50 cold weather gear…..

Dear W Cisek,
if you were born in Germany, you have to address your birth town's civil administration, giving them at least full name, date of birth and any other information you might have (name of parents). A search will only be successful if you address the right administration or if you can give enough information to find it. In case this is unsuccessful, please contact the International Tracing Service in Bad Arolsen, Germany.

Dzien Dobry,
I was also born in a DP camp, in 1948, in Wendorf, just outside of Hamburg. My father was a POW (1939-45, Lager 11B) having been a rifleman in the Polish army and my mother, also Polish, was taken as slave labour to work in a munitions factory in the vicinity of Neuebrandenburg. Looking at this website, I am amazed at the quantity and quality of the documentation about this particular DP camp that was home to so many Poles. I have found very little about Wendorf DP camp, except for the odd reference here and there but nothing about the camp itself, life in the camp, how it functioned etc. I have in my possession a large collection of pictures from that camp where I was born including DP documentation and other papers. Perhaps somebody here is familiar with Wendorf DP camp and can point me in the right direction. Thank you very much for a wonderful site. It was a very emotional experience reading all the documents. Pozdrawiam, Bogdan Karasek
