Jack, is there a National Archives website or do you actually have/own all these?

It almost looks like the tape was pushed IN over the gun prts.

Great Shot

I went there a while back and a good buddy of mine goes there to do research and get photos at least twice a year. He's gotten somewhere between 40,000-50,000 photos from there

Sorry Jack, what does "gotten photos" mean? Does he buy copies? Scan copies? Steal them under his shirt?
