[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Footnote and National Archives data

[Karl Krueger]

Dick - your proposal is something I hoped for as well. Several months ago I asked the expert who works in the microfilm film at the National Archives (a large proportion of that room is captured German records) whether there was any plans to digitize EWZ, RuSHA, SS records, German Navy records, etc. He said he hadn't heard of any plans and doubts it would ever happen.  :>(

  Thanks for this lead, Sue. Wouldn't it be great if they would put the 
Captured German War Documents online? That would include the EWZ stuff as 
well as many other great sources. I can't imagine it happening, though. Or 
could it? They do ask for "suggestions". I made one.
