CONFERENCE ON CAPTURED
GEID~~
AND RELATED
RECOr~S
On November 12 and 13, 1968, the National Archives sponsored a program on
"Captured German and Related Records," ""hich called attention to the fact that
the bulk of German recorc1s have nOH been returned to the Bundesarchiv in Cob1enz,
and that the depository at Alexandria, Va., Nhere many of the pDpers had been
kept, is closed. The microfiJms of German and Italian records, amounting to over
20,000,000 frames, are now mostly in the National Archives in Washington, D.C.
The available rolls are itemized in List of National Archives Microfilm
Aids to locating material--;r-;-listed in the
September, 1968, edition of Publications of the National Archives and Records
:Service. This pamphlet mentions the "Supplement to the Guide to Captured Gerrn.an
Documents" (the original Guide was prepared for the AHA by Gerhard L. Weinberg
of Nichigan in 1952); and it lists also the 591uimeographed guides to various
sections of the records. The guides do not cover the entire collection but
ultimately they will. The guides ar~ currently in short supply and available
only to institutions.
PU",?1ic_?tion~' (Hashington, 1968).
The programs included papers on the documents themselves and on uses made
of them at Nuremborg, by the Office of the Chief of Military History, by the
State Department, by the Army, Navy, <l.nd Air Force. Texts of the papers will be
made available by the National Archives. Some of the points ""hich may be of
interest to historians of the Second Hor1d Har wouj.d include:

Several hundred military historical studies, prepared under U.S. aegis
after the 'War by high-ranking German officers \"ho were given access to the
captured records for this purpose, are currently being transferred by the Office
of the Chief of Hilitary History (Demo to the National Archives, and Y!i11 even­
tually be available for conGultation there and for purchase on microfilm. Similar
studies prepared for the U.S. Air Force by former Luftwaffe officers, are
available at Haxwell Field, Alabama, at \~right FieTd~-C;-i~mbus, Ohio, and some
at the National Arcllives. These studies are listed and briefly described in the
Guide to Foreign Hilita!"~ldies, 1945-1954 (Historical Division, U. S. Army,
1954), and its ~lernent (1959).
Most of the German Naval Archives (the "Tambach Castle" collection), covering
the period from 1850-1945, was microfilmed in England shortly after the war by
the u.S. Navy. The approximately 3,900 reels produced are gradually being
transferred to the National Archives, which will prepare microfilmed finding aids,
and eventually printed catalogues.
At the conclusion of the National Archives conference, the director of the
Bundesarchiv at Coblenz, Dr. Mommsen, made a brief statement. He pointed out
that the Militararchiv at Freiburg is under Bundesarchiv administration. Although
there are many gaps, due to the 'War and destruction of the Heeresarchiv in 1945,
there are almost complete Reich Chancellory records from 1918. There are good
collections in Finance, Justice, the SS, and Wehrmacht commands. The Navy records
are the only ones that permit an unbroken record into the 19th century.
In addition to basic records, there are collections of private papers, posters,
election materials of the Weimar Republic, documentary films, and newsreels. An
inventory is in process of being made, to be published in 1969.
The director of the Institut fur Zeitgeschichte in Munich, Dr. Helmut
Krausnick, also made a brief statement:
The Institut has been attempting to catalogue materials for contemporary
history. So far there are 1,800 rolls, covering 3,200,000 pages of documents,
with 800 more rolls in process. The Institut compiles card files on material
according to categories: for example, 8,700 entries on the SS, 5,000 on JeHs,
5,000 on llitler. It also has available~eportoria or Search books, arranged
according to original sources. These may be xeroxed for scholars. (The Hoover
Library has copies.)

WORK IN PROGRESS
One function of the current Newsletter is to keep interested persons informed
regarding research in the World War II period. The Office of External Research
in the Department of State has for eighteen years published lists of current
social science research by private scholars and academic centers, and many items
recorded in these lists have dealt with the Second World War. The current series
is, however, the last to be published. To quote from the Office: "After June
1968 the Office of External Research will no longer collect information in the
same way on research in progress dealing with foreign areas and international
affairs. . . . In the future the Office will concentrate its bibliographic and
documentation efforts in the Foreign Affairs Research Documentation Center, which
houses a collection of unpublished research papers made available to State Depart­
ment and other U.S. Government officers.
. . . Further information may be obtained
from the Office of External Research, Academic Relations Division, Department of
State, Washington, D.C. 20520." Information about Government-sponsored foreign
area research in the social sciences, and about relations between Government and
private research organizations may be found in the new pamphlet Far Horizons,
published bimonthly for the interagency Foreign Area Research Coordination Group
by the State Department's Office of External Research.
The following list has been compiled from communications to the Newsletter:
Stephen E. Ambrose (Johns Hopkins): An account of Eisenhower's wartime career.
To be published by the Johns Hopkins Press.
George Baer (University of California at Santa Cruz): A study of the League of
Nations Mandate system.
Hanson Baldwin: An outline history of World War II, roughly comparable to his
outline history of World War I, for Harper & Row.
Alvin D. Coox (San Diego State College): The Japanese-Soviet Russian military
confrontation, 1931-1945.
Harold Deutsch (Minnesota): The diaries and papers of Helmuth Groscurth (in co­
operation with Helmut Krausnick, to be published in German by the Deutsche
Verlagsanstalt).
Stanley L. Falk (Industrial College of the Armed Forces): "The Malaya-Singapore
Campaign" for the Lippincott "Great Battles in History" series.
Raymond Garthoff (Department of Defense): History of World War II on the Eastern
Front.

The Historical Branch of the Harine Corps has available "An Annotated Bibli­
ography of the United States Harine Corps in the Second World War" (Washington,
D.C.: Historical Branch, G-3 Division, HQ, U.S. Marine Corps, 1965). The list
contains 214 items.
The last two volumes of the five-volume History of the U.S. Harine Corps
Operations in World War II should appear in 1969, as the texts have by now been
sent to the Government Printing Office. Several civilian publishers have indicated
that they intend to republish some or all of the 15 campaign monographs (all
long out of print) which were completed between 1947 and 1955.
Many readers of this Newsletter will already be familiar with the British
magazine, History of the Second World War, of which Sir Basil Liddell Hart is
editor-in-chief, and Barrie Pitt the editor. This journal, produced in active
cooperation with the Imperial War Museum, is profusely illustrated. While its
articles are popular in style, they are authoritative and in many cases written
by outstanding experts in the field. The periodical appears wee~ly, and is
published by Purnell & Sons, Ltd., St. Giles House, 49 Poland Street, London,
W.l. U.S. annual cost is $47.00.
The editors of History of the Second World War are currently sponsoring a
series of paperbacks (retailed in the U.S. by Ballantine Books) on various aspects
of the war. Twelve of these are listed in the bibliography section.

In his recent The Ordeal of Total War, 1939-1945 (N.Y.: Harper and Row,

important works on the war in Europe appearing before 1968. The following list
is an attempt to supplement Professor Wright's bibliography with a few more
recent publications and with some recent books covering the pre-war period,
