I was stationed in Bad Kreuznach from 1993-5 and the Kaserne I worked in
was next door to the Schneider factory (or at least the big building
that I took to be the factory). I always wondered what that building
looks like inside, but in two years of occasional asking I was never
able to arrange a tour. Has anyone been inside who could satisfy my
curiosity?
