    Greetings all,

    Dont ask me where i found it, but i got it from my system, stashed somewhere in my files.

    I thought you might be interested.


    German Surrender Documents (pdf) and Japanese surrender documents (pdf)

    drop.io surrenderdocs

    Amazing isnt it?,blood spilled for 5 years is immediately stopped by ink on paper?

    Regards,
    TBA

    Thanks for the salute Lou,

    but just a note,

    the site is not related to ww2. I had those pdf's on my desktop, i uploaded to drop.io, and posted the link (as i didnt want to eat in the servers space :) )

    Regards,
    TBA

    Thanks for the offer of doing this OP. I think they deserve a regular home.

    They'll go next to the HTML versions when I get them uploaded.

    I'm happier with PDF documents now that download speeds are up as it makes the material available faster and with less chance of "artifacts" from the conversion to HTML. When I started this kind of thing I used a 9600 baud modem and a 6.3 meg file would have been a ludicrous undertaking. Right now I'm offloading 256 gig of files onto DVD to free up some HDD space. O tempore, O mores.
