The Log Book wish to promote the following websites as they have all in one way or another contributed to this project.

Wethersfield Airfield Museum
The Museum exists to record the rich and diverse military and social history of RAF Wethersfield. The museum is an educational repository of audio, visual and physical resources which celebrate Anglo-American relations and collectively tells the story of this unique place in Essex.
Bataan Legacy Historical Society
Bataan Legacy Historical Society was created as a response to the lack of information on the Filipino defenders of Bataan. It began during public readings of a historical novel, In Her Mother’s Image, written by the founder of the organization Cecilia I. Gaerlan. The novel was inspired by the many WWII stories that Cecilia heard while growing up as a child in the Philippines. Her father, Luis Gaerlan, Jr., was with the 41st Infantry Regiment of the U.S. Army Forces of the Far East and survived the Bataan Death March as well as his incarceration at Camp O’Donnell.
Crestwood – Oral History Project
Mr. Scott Masters and the Crestwood Social Studies Department have been working on compiling a Historical Archive for several years now. This initiative came into being because of the numerous World War Two Veterans and Holocaust Survivors that have spoken to Mr. Masters’ students. Through their generosity and to make sure that their memories are kept alive as an intact historical document, Mr. Masters and his students have been digitizing their photos and memento’s.

The Dresden Trust
The Dresden Trust was founded in 1993 in response to a call from Dresden for help rebuild the Frauenkirche (Church of Our Lady), one of Europe’s most magnificent churches. It had collapsed as a result of the British and American bombing of February 1945, in which up to 25,000 people died.
The Trust today seeks to fulfill its mission of reconciliation through educational and cultural initiatives, memorials and visits. Under the Trust’s Dresden Scholars’ Scheme, boys and girls from Dresden/Saxony receive scholarships to attend independent schools in Britain: about 300 have done so since 2000.

The website has been under constant development through additions since 2007 forming once of the largest and complete collections of data.
