TsAMO access to be restricted
 

Researchers - I just learned this from one of my research guys:

the Russians are to close access to the "West" to the huge archive of documents digitized from TsAMO. Possibly on May 1 or on their anniversary on May 9.

I could get all political about this, but I'll just leave it here for now

The fact is the Russian President will decide what happens on Victory Day, May 8.

I did read that, following the example of Col. Scheisskopf in Catch-22, Putin had decided that "Due to circumstances beyond my control, there will be no big parade."

it says: Dear users! On April 29, due to technical maintenance, the Pamyat Naroda portal will be temporarily unavailable.

Thank you Peter. We'll see what happens in May.

Have they added anything to it in recent years?

I did not notice any new materials from time span that interests me... waiting for 6.GIAD 1945 etc...

Hello Richard,

I think this is erroneous info.
Among other things, such a restriction would simply be ineffective.

On the eve and during Victory Day, the website is often unstable due to the large number of visitors.

Best regards,
Andrey

Hello Steve,

For the last seven years or so, only personal data has been updated, as far as I could see.
Many documents have been digitized, but still not uploaded for some reason unknown to me.

Some say that there will be a big update during these May holidays. I really hope so.

Best regards,
Andrey
