Re: Bundesarchiv Militärarchiv (BAMA) digitization plans

Hello Hans,

Thank you and thanks also to Steve Coates, who first made me aware of the fact that digitisation of the files at the Bundesarchiv Militärarchiv has progressed. Steve advised me to take a look at files within RL 1, and it is indeed the case that some interesting items have become available. Here is an example, a set of printed copies of orders by Hermann Göring issued at the end of the war, found using the Deutsche Digitale Bibliothek. One of the orders concerns the dismissal of Adolf Galland from his position as General der Jagdflieger:

Reichsmarschall-Befehle Nr. 2 - Nr. 20 (Druck)
Archivaliensignatur: Bundesarchiv, BArch RL 1/4

deutsche-digitale-bibliothek.de/item/2WVNBJ6FRW36BDT27AXIY6XARROWLNCD

To look at the digitial version of the file, it is necessary to take two steps:

1. Click the link at the top or bottom of the file description at the Deutsche Digitale Bibliothek link, with the text 'Objekt beim Datengeber anzeigen'

2. Once the link to the Invenio catalogue opens, find the text 'Digitalisat anzeigen' at the bottom of the file description there, click it and then you will see the digitised file

Regards,

Dan
