Yes, one would. There is so much of this material, spanning the whole war and all the German armed services, that ordering from the website would be a very expensive business.

In his book »Soldaten«, Sönke Neitzel said that his team had indexed all these reports (and copied them? I don’t remember now) but as far as I know, his index isn’t generally available. It would save a lot of time if it was.

P.S. IIRC Neitzel also thought he was the first to use these reports as a source but he was wrong about that.
