RA/RCA/US(airborne) Artillery units

I am currently setting up site about the above units who fought in the netherlands in 1944-1945.
Far from being finished ofcourse, but when I have the first info on it about the Heavy and Medium regiments I will bring on line, in the meantime if there are forum members who have information/documentation about the Heavy/Medium units, and they would like to share it it, it would be most welcome, of course the source will be mentioned.


Thanks in advance

I assume you're already had a look at the online archive of the US Field Artillery Journal.
But just in case:
FAMAG

Cheers,

for the moment only US airborne, Steve, as there is enough material around for the Airborne Div units. Maybe later on, as I also have enough material at home about the British airborne units

Hell's Highway, a chronicle of the 101st Airborne in Holland, Sept - Nov 1944. Written by George E. Koskimaki, ex Airborne. It contains 612 eye witness and diary accounts, including that of 90 Dutch civilians. Also contains maps and a few photographs. It was loaned to me by a friend in Vught. He found it in a Dutch second hand book shop. Loads of info that would help you.
