Welcome !

This is an online archive for the display of military history-related photographs and documents (mainly WW2 photographs and photo albums). It is hoped that making these available will prove useful to historians, researchers, militaria collectors and and anyone interested in the day to day reality of this period of history. By showing the albums and collections in their entirety it is hoped to give a small insight to the day to day lives of soldiers and civilians from that time.

They are unwritten history books of that war, uncompromising in their secret truths.
They are photographic time-capsules of every day people- their triumphs and personal disasters, and every photo enhances one's knowledge and wisdom on the subject of WWII if the time is taken to imagine the moment which surrounds each shot.
There were few victors in that war.

Bill Bruegman
