    We begin again.

    We've added about two dozen War Damage Reports for the USN to the site.

    We'll use this thread for future announcements as the files are uploaded.

    Files added:


    POST MORTEMS ON ENEMY SUBMARINES


    DIVISION OF NAVAL INTELLIGENCE


    (PDF copies via links in table)


    These booklets, mostly less than fifty pages, contain as much intelligence as could be shared at the time from what had been collected from the sub and/or crews.

    Add over forty Japanese Monographs, in PDF and/or HTML format. Some of the PDFs are rather large. Anybody who is interested in helping us convert the PDFs to HTML should contact us at the address at the top of the page.

    And here we go, yet again. Otto is now head honcho at Hyperwar, so I'm happy to flout the chain of command and give you this:

    http://ibiblio.org/hyperwar/NHC/NewPDFs/USA/Journal of Recognition/USN Naval Combatants by Type Sept. 1943.gif

    Not an image because it are big. 12" x 18", same size as the "gatefold" from the first edition of U.S Army-Navy Journal of Recognition. This is a magazine the size of Life or Saturday Evening Post. The journal itself is uploading now. We have about 24 of these, all loaded with great pix. Each gatefold will be posted separately for people who want to hide that (or those) bullet hole(s) in the wall from the Mrs.

    ETA: There is no index yet, so just view the directory to see if you have them all at the time you visit.

    Added two years worth of Yank Magazine and the full run of Office of War Information's Defense/Victory Bulletin. /USArmy and /USA folders respectively.

    For those who haven't visited recently we've added nearly a thousand new pdfs. Some redundancy but overall there a poo-poo load of files for your looting pleasure.

    Gearing up for the Hyperwar sub by consolidating all the Hyperwar content. A few updates to Hyperwar itself are also in the works, as is the announcement here.

    No one can yet see this section, so don't expect any activity here until that announcement.
