The newspapers can be found at the Newspapers section.

She also provided me with 276 bulletins aired by the 83rd Signal Corps but it will probably take me a while before i've added those.

Last but not least. I was going through the morning reports of the 329th and i was doing so because i wanted find out which soldier was in which company. I've managed to allocate 316 out of roughly 400 329th soldiers buried in Europe. See an example http://83rdinfdivdocs.org/heroes/serial/O1318453 . My plan is to do the same for all the other units but it is quite alot of work so we'll have to see where that goes. Well that is all for now, i will post another message when the bulletins are added.
