    hey, does anyone have the possibility to get ww2 documents from the "BIOS - British Intelligence Objectives Sub-Committee / CIOS - Combined Intelligence Objectives Sub-Committee / FIAT - Field Information Agency, Technical /JIOA - Joint Intelligence Objectives Agency"?
    i need everything connected to the german underground factories, especially the one where the me-262 was produced, it's in the "walpersberg" near "kahla"....the codename was "lachs".
    i have a small map which i really would need in high resolution...it was made by "special report CIOS team 163" it is "illustration No. 12" "Reg No 58766"
    thanks

    If you do a Google search on the subject you will come up with a number of resources. Very little of the original documents posted on-line.
    I had the gov't address where the archives are held. Can't find it at the moment. Will keep looking.

    Some of the later ones are posted here:
    British Intelligence Objectives Sub-Committee (BIOS)

    exactly those reports is what i am looking for..... hoped they would be online somewhere...
    would be great if u find anything about that.....there are so many projects running for me at the moment......and to have some 100% correct informations, that's very helpful....there's always a point where the "i heard some say"- and "rumorlike" information lead to nowhere, that's why i want to have the good informations

    It's an arcane business using their search-engine, but if you just start with typing 'CIOS' into the UK's National Archives site there's a host of documents in the right sort of area you're looking in.

    Eg:
    etc.

    They'll copy most documents if you're unable to visit... for a price (though I don't know what their policy on supplying stuff internationally is).
    Risky business though, so be sure you know exactly what you're after.

    Cheers,
    Adam.
