Does anyone know how to convert the id codes next to the numbers into anything searchable for the individual photo in the archive? I tried searching for one thing which was just number and actually found it (a Valentine tank which went partly into a ditch, when both the road and ditch were covered in water), but I tried to look in the archive database for the same Jagdpanther images that Stolpi used and I came up with a blank. (I was hoping there might be more information there about where the photos were taken, and this would be necessary if I wanted to order a reproduction.) edit: possibly try searching for PA-# after replacing # with the number of the photo (no additional letters) Or sometimes try searching for that in the "Item No (Creator)" field. Not always certain. edited PS: I can't quite believe it - I found more stills from when 2 A/Tk Reg't RCA handed in their Archers!
