Hello, I'm doing a bit of research for 'Foyle's War' and I am struggling to find some quite obscure documents that I can use to make some props. I need some examples of German documents from around 1942. They are: Some kind of a journey log of a merchant ship. A detailed list of cargo on board a merchant ship. (The ships is carrying food, cigarettes, whisky etc) I am struggling to find many German shipping records from WWII. If I could speak German, it would be a lot easier! Even if I could find British equivalents, that would be a start. Its difficult to explain without giving the story away but lets just say the ship is controlled by Germans as part of an undercover business operation, not necessarily the Kriegsmarine- it's a private operation. I may have to employ a bit of artistic license as it is a fictional story very loosely based on some real events. Sorry to be vague but I don't want to give away the story. I've seen the shipping cards for British Ships in the National Archives (see attached example) but I need something much more detailed, and ideally in German. Many thanks, Mary
