Holy cow. Sat down to read it this morning, but will have to take more time to read it thoroughly at a later date. Will probably print it out to peruse on the couch.
Yes you're right. Rare stuff and should be cherished.
That's the same way I feel about reports from North Africa. The records I received from NARA sketchily cover that part of the war. You start getting really precise records in Sicily and Italy, so anything I find on North Africa regarding the 540th are extra special to me.
Once again thanks for sharing all this.
