Anybody know where to find British Army documents that are not in the National Archives?
A patron (brigadier general, no less) is looking for a report and I came up blank. Anybody know anyone in the army? I hate not to have results to show. :-(

Have you tried the ministry of defence websites? They've a section for researchers that might help

Have you googled it?

I've found many an interesting item in pdf that way.

Also, feel free to join the ILL listserve using Ill-l-request@webjunction.org (put "subscribe" as the subject) once you're a member, you can ask questions there and get help - members are international. I've received articles from Denmark, for example.

If you know the unit/organization that was involved, or the ranking officer, contact them directly.

I did the unit history summary for two years running, its a pain in the ass to format.
