	If the father was in the British forces and stationed in Germany then the birth will be registered at the British Consulate. Our grandaughter was born in Germany in the early 80,s when her dad was stationed there and is on Find MY Past -Military-Armed Forces births If the father had already left the Forces before the birth then this wont apply .The birth would be in the German BMDS
