RAF Andover, just outside .... Andover. A very old airfield of the RFC, RAF, RCAF and USAFE.

IIRC it served as a P-38 (amongst other things) base during WWII.

It's now home to HQ Land Forces, although the airfield itself is long gone.

Edited to add a Wiki link
"We attack tomorrow under cover of daylight! It's the last thing they'll be expecting ... a daylight charge across the minefield .."
