For a research I am conducting on behalf of a local historical association, I need to be researching the war diary's of all the units that participated in the area of the Betuwe/The Island, between the Crossing of the Waal river on September 20th, 1944, until on April 3rd, 1945 two COmpany's of the Lincoln's crossed the Lower Rhine/Pannerdens Canal at the Looveer. I hope some are already in hands here, otherwhise I will have to let them be copied. Fo a good and through research I need scans of the originals and no transcripts. I do not have all of the numbers of the documents at hand right now, but will be updating a list here from time to time, when my research unfolds. Off course I will finally share the research with all you here too.
