I do recall something about the concentration camp pics! Thanks I will take a peek and see if I can get copies locally!Roy was with the Defense Mapping Agency at the end of his Air Force career. His last job was to run the program that sorted through millions of recon photos the were slated for silver recovery (aka: destruction) to make certain that any historically important images were saved at the National Archives. You may remember the concentration camp pix that he discovered a few decades back. Hi books were both well done looks into a rarely discussed topic.
Cheers,
