    1940-03-08, the proper one, is uploading now.

    Thanks above is fine now. All others still giving same messages.

    Changes may need some time to work their way through the ether perhaps? I'll leave it for now and re-check later.

    Have you tried clearing the cache in your browser? Or using one that you haven't accessed the site on lately? I did mass uploaded for all years, picking up a couple nobody had mentioned in the process.

    I fixed the URL, http://www.ibiblio.org/pha/TWI/TWI-42-11-27.pdf

    And Volume 8 is uploaded. This is through April 27, 1945, and I must say things are looking good in the ETO. :D

    Do you think there'll be a victory party soon then?

    Cleared the cache, fine after that. Much obliged for your efforts

    No problem. I've been wanting to do this since I found some of the volumes in the library at Purdue.

    And that's the "wartime issues" done. Still have about 40 numbers left to complete the set, I wonder what they could be talking about now? ;)

    Questions, please? Sir John Hammerton was associated with the London Times? And The War Illustrated was published by the Times? If so, was editorial control exercised by Sir John? And was there an over committee of censors "in the loop", or did the censorship come from "in house" committees or an assigned officer or officers.

    Thanks in advance.

    I fixed the 1941, but I'm not seeing a problem with the 1945. TWI-41-01-05.pdf shows as the correct date on my PC and on ibiblio.org. Can you check it again please?

    And that's volume 9 online. Hard to believe it's only been four months.

    Volume 10 in a few weeks.

    True, which is why I need all of your help when doing this. I still haven't "published" the site, but my favorite Prof at Purdue, a devout Luddite, is already grumbling about the "unreasonable amount of time this is taking." :rolleyes:
