Soren, Did you know that the Bundesarchiv has now got material on line. Just type in "Arnheim" and your Missus will start to worry again !

The National Archive of Canada. It has a lot more than WW2 but an advanced search allows dates. I find place names useful and 'Provost' is one of my favourites.

Let's not forget the French archive. Not quite so easy to search but worth persevering.

ECPAD - Médiathèque de la Défense
