Directorate of History and Heritage, Ottawa

The following seems to be a complete listing of the Air Ministry documents kept in Ottawa:

At the

Directorate of History and Heritage (DHH)

Re: Directorate of History and Heritage, Ottawa

My bad, the link is so long it does not copy the middle part. I cannot seem to copy it and it opens as a word doc, not an html, so I cannot see the whole address.
Try this:
Google: 242 Squadron orb june 1940. Go to page 19. Hit the 5 entry which is "doc Record Group 1 - General Records ......."

Then it opens the 132 page word doc.

Did that work or do you want me to upload the whole document?

Here are the "finding aids" to the whole DHH archive, not just the air related section: http://www.wlu.ca/lcmsds/archives/ou...tions/dhh.html
