To get inspartion for a dio i usely look for pictures. I found some colored pictures and they give the missing details from the black / white one.
What i actualy surch is a site with colored pictures of the European theater, the Pacific one have the most colored pictures. To understand that America was using as the first country colored pictures. They became more often by the Rhine conflict which is the end the WW2.
Anybody as the knolegde of a site with colored pictures please do share it.
MY picutres are from books and ironicly German pictures

Hi,

At Panzer Diesel you have some pages with Color Photographs from the NS propaganda magazines "Die Wehrmacht" and "Signal", 1939-45.

I have a large "coffee-table book" called "The History of WWII in Color" that I purchased at Barnes & Noibles... it has over 200 color photos that commence with the week just before D-day. Wonderful book and I paid around $15 for it (originally $40). i find that if you look in their "close out section" that they offer a LOT of military books with great photos... my favorite place to shop for research books!
