How many books do we have?

I have the whole set of Action Stations ; I remember ordering Vol 1 direct from the long-defunct ( ) Patrick Stephens Ltd as soon as it was published.

These books have been responsible for many hours of 'detours' and countless gallons of petrol visiting historic sites.

Even now, I'm musing over visiting some of 100 Group's Norfolk locations....

 

I only have volume 7, which covers Scotland, NI and the NE.
The secretary of the UK Fortifications Club has recommended ALL of the above titles in our magazine Aldis, so they're well worth getting.
If you keep visiting the English Heritage website and put "Modern Military Matters" into the search box, you'll be able to keep abreast of the working group into military archaeology.There's actually a policy discussion booklet doing the rounds of the UKFC, FSG etc, and there's research ongoing into army camps in Britain over the last century and a half, aimed at producing a gazetteer. One of the authors I mentioned produced a gazetteer of WW2 POW camps in Britain last year.
Anyway, we're a tad off-topic.

 

I think John Prescott must have a copy of the same gazetter, so that he can rush around declaring them to be 'brownfield sites' and shove up a load more Monopoly houses.....

 

And making sure both jags get a good run at the same time.

 

What? You can get at them to count them?

Im thinking of giving out library tickets..

I must have over 400 and I cause mayhem in the junk room when I try to get at a long lost one that suddenly appears in my memory....Then finding it must be par to landing on Omaha with things crashing round my head...

Magazines? Your joking? I'm constanly finding copies of Soldier magazine or armed forces reviews from the seventies that I didn't know I had...Blimey aint things changed...I knew that HMS Blake and Bulwark were pie in the sky...

 

I just bought my first WWII book today: "D-Day - Juno Beach, Canada's 24 hours of destiny" by Lance Goddard
