Re: namelists
Well said John,
I myself have been working on the loss lists that are available from the archives for the last 5 years. Just the ones available from the Bundesarchiv, excluding 1944, amout to 18,000 pages on microfiche or film. It takes appoximately 1 hour to transcribe one page from the fiche into another format, if it is a good quality copy. Just as an example the losses for May 1940 in 8 pt size is a 65 page document. One source for the list is the Lufwaffe Verband. My resarch is published there by Barry Rosch with every issue. I did not mean to beat my own drum, but you are absolutely right, sometimes one does not know what they are asking for.
Regards,
Norbert
