    I'm scanning and posting some newsletters and a few other items originating from the Guards Armoured Division from May 1945. Probably around 10 pages in total, but since it's foolscap outside of my A4 scanner size, there may be more scans. I'm not sure if this is new material (may be some in Guards Museums?), but these particular copies have been hidden away for too long.
