| I found a site called paperlessarchives.com with some really interesting stuff you can get on DVD. Kind of like Zenos only for historical documents. Have several WWI which are pretty much of American origin and thus somewhat limited in coverage but they do have some interesting documents nonetheless example: [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]Excerpt: "Another important document produced under Gorrell's supervision as part of the history of the Air Service, AEF, is a "Tactical History" written by Lt. Col. William C. Sherman and a group of officers working with him in France at the end of World War I. Although published in part in an Air Service Information Circular in 1920, Sherman's "Tactical History" has remained virtually unknown, or at least has not had extensive use. Since it provides excellent information about the conduct of combat operations, it should be of value to persons interested in aerial warfare in the First World War." | |

| 1.89 million pages!!!!!! Just some light reading huh? But you may be referring to the 2387 pages in 4 volumes. Gee when you put it in perspective it's not that much. Enjoy it, but I'm afraid that goes deeper than my curiosity. Nice find Glider. | |
