I served in the British Army up until the end of 2011, and EVERYONE referred to the prison at Colchester as the Glasshouse. So the claim that this term is rarely used is not correct. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.245.167.51 (talk) 02:44, 27 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I concur with the above. I served on joint operations with H.M. Forces in Germany and at Fort Lewis, WA (USA) many times during my (US) army career (1971 to 2001). Glasshouse was used very frequently. We Sustain Tjlynnjr (talk) 01:00, 24 October 2015 (UTC) .[reply]

Agreed on the above comments and I have removed it because the text was copyvio anyway. The joy of all things (talk) 11:45, 13 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Whole page is lifted entirely from the Army source, and the assertion that "Glasshouse" is not used anymore is entirely incorrent, indeed it is even well-known to the forces of allied nations who have served with British soldiers. 173.239.232.97 (talk) 20:35, 31 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
