Help with French Archives.

[Martin Gleeson]

Hallo all,

I hope shortly to write to the S.H.A.A. in Paris (?), but am unsure of their address. Could someone please give me the correct address and also which department or office to specify. It is in connection with the forced landing of an RAF aircraft and detention of the pilot by the Vichy authorities.

Regards,

Martin Gleeson.

The SHAA didn't exist anymore officialy. All historical services of the 3 arms fusionned last year and the SHAT, SHAA and SHM became departments of the new Service Historique.

The physical adress didn't change:
Service historique de la Défense
Château de Vincennes
Avenue de Paris
94300 VINCENNES

The postal adress change:
Service historique de la Défense
département de l'armée de l'Air
Château de Vincennes
BP 110
00481 ARMEES

And there is an e-mail: archives@shaa.claranet.fr

By the way, I hope to there next week if my job is allowing, so maybe I can help you.

Laurent
