It has taken me more than 2 years, due to my health limitations, but I have now completed the transcription, annotation and indexing of these August 1944 records, which represent most of the 7th Armored Division -- but not all: I still need to obtain some of the units' records and include them in later editions. Since it includes reports from so many elements (but not all) of the 7th Armored Division, the book's 153 pages make it relatively large, compared to the other transcriptions that I have done.
