Comments

The voucher was specific to Bad Oeynhausen, a town in North Rhine-Westphalia that served as the headquarters for the British Army of the Rhine (BAOR) and the British Control Commission starting in May 1945. These tokens allowed British military personnel and occupation staff to purchase items like food or beverages at Y.M.C.A. (Young Men's Christian Association) facilities without using local German currency or standard British pounds.
