MACR online: seeking advice

[Laurent Rizzotti]

I would like to have advices about the Footnotes website, that has apparently all MACR and is requiring 80 dollars by year to have full access.

It seems to me that some people here use it, and I would have you opinion about it.

On a related note, I have found (as usual while searching something else) this site

http://www.wfirg.org/index.php?p=1_7_Books-and-Reports

One of the proposals is a CD with the 500 or 511 first MACR. Price is again 80 dollars. Again I will be interested to have an advice on this offer.

Thanks in advance

Laurent

Laurent - it depends on the extent of your research..I found the subscription fee was worthy - the Macr files are extensive and in most cases dealing with 355th FG for 1944, the accompanying LW KUJ reports are attached.

Regards,

Bill

PS if your needs are small I will be delighted to extract and send them to you

Thanks Bill for the advice or the offer,

The fact that the German files are included is a big plus for me.

I will rather subcride, as I have rather big needs

Laurent - for my particular research on the 355th I would estimate 40-50% of the J reports were attached to the Macr's - particularly the KIA files.
