A cemetery in Germany that has served the British forces community since the early 1950s has been formally handed over to the Commonwealth War Graves Commission.

Until now Rheindahlen Military Cemetery has been the responsibility of Rhine Garrison.

The move is intended to ensure the cemetery's future after the British leave the area in 2014.
