![]() ![]() ![]() | Paul, you can 'advanced search' a bit although my French is not really good enough to look thoroughly. I can't post a link to a search but if you go under recherche avance and then try place names like 'Dunkerque' or 'normandie' or even 'allemands' 1939 - 1945 then there are some interesting images. |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Some of you may have noticed the IWM collections main page is currently offline. Quick check shows this chap as the registrant of the .org now. Possible that the main url still lies with IWM though, Lambeth registrant 'UK organisation'. Wonder what that's all about. IWM forgotten to renew the domain? Someone's jumped in? Who knows, hope it's back soon... I miss it.

The main IWM website is still linking to the iwmcollections domain so it looks like it's an unintended change. | |
