Some good news
I have just received the news that the 37th Battalion website is to be archived with PANDORA - I am stoked with the news
Kate
quote: The Australian War Memorial has recently finalised a partnership with the National Library of Australia regarding contribution to their Preserving and Accessing Networked Documentary Resources of Australia (PANDORA) project and we are now in the process of conducting training and beginning to archive selected websites.
We would very much like to archive your site The 37th Battalion as one of our first sites in this project.

Re: Some good news
Congratulations, Kate. A tribute to all your hard work and countless hours you have put in. This should mean more visitors and forum members. Good to see the AWM accepting the work of an 'outsider' too. Gives us all hope!

Re: Some good news
Kate, allow me to add my congratulations also.
The AWM would indeed be silly not to take the opportunity of adding your website to their archive list.
Out of curiosity, did you receive any form of assistance from the AWM in compiling your website?

Re: Some good news
Thanks for your thoughts Graeme and Dave. Every now and then it is good to have something happen that keeps up enthuisiasm for this work.
Dave, I have recieved no assistance in any form from AWM, or any other source, it has all been a labour of love, and done because I feel such respect and admiration towards the spirit of these men.
It is hard to explain to people not in tune to it, why I spend so much time on something with no financial reward - follow researchers will understand though I am sure.
