Hello Gentlemen,
I have an exciting goldmine for those interested in true research and document examination.
I have aquired from the NARA all microfilm (rolls) records pertaining to the Waffen and Allgemeine SS.
This was a very costly endeavour, but my hope was to make these files available to researchers and collectors at no cost, and at the "click of a mouse".
Given the copious amount of data, I have decided to focus on a singular aspect that interests me first, the Dirlewanger Brigade. I have pulled all the corresponding rolls that contain the Dirlewanger records, and want to have each German document translated. I then want to include each document, and it's translated copy put into a singular PDF file.
To give you guy's an example of how mammoth this endeavour will be, the first roll from the Dirlewanger file alone contains 1142 documents......
So, that all being said, I'm looking for anyone with an excellent or native command of the German & English language to volunteer in this research.
We can work from this thread, via e-mail, or at a later date from my website. Please PM me or post here if your interested.
If a MOD would be so kind to sticky this thread, that would be greatly appreciated.
Here is a teaser:
