    General Kenney Reports, Eichelberger's Our jungle road to tokyo, along with CMH 5-4 and CMH 5-5 to read the 'Official' version. finally 'battle of bismarck sea' by Gilbert, an RAAF historian, and several volumes SE Morison to keep it all honest.

    Glad to have you aboard.You probably should check out Hyperwar (by our own OpanaPointer) for more on those affairs.

    Lou, he's referencing that I'm now the curator of HyperWar. You are 100% correct in that he is a prime mover of that incredible project. It was assembled by OpanaPointer and another history titan in Patrick Clancey. For now, I'm just holding the leash of this HyperWar beast until I can reign her in.
