[Allyn Brosz]

Joanne,

I'd suggest the following preparation before you make a trip to the National
Archives at College Park (local road signs call this facility "Archives
II").

Hours, Location, Directions can be found at:

Be sure to read the information for researchers:

For specific information on the EWZ records, which are only a subset of the
Berlin Document Center collection, here are some useful links that
supplement Tom & Jan Stangl's recent message which Jerry Frank reposted some
days ago.
