Re: Please help me expand my WW2 glossary
Peter, I'd love to help you, but I'm hoping to sell mine! My glossary of words, phrases, and abbreviations stands at 8500+ entries right now. I have one more reference to go through that should expand that number greatly.
I'll keep you posted, though!

Re: Please help me expand my WW2 glossary
Oh, believe, me, when that thing is done, EVERYBODY'S gonna know about it!
I'm debating now whether to stick with my original plan, or to launch the glossary separately. The original plan is a research aid CD, with six or seven different sections in it. The glossary was going to be the biggest, with a sizeable gazetteer also. Sections on weapons, map symbols, and rank charts were going to be in it, too. Now, though, this glossary is looking like it will be a pretty good book-length document. I'm thinking about publishing it separately, then offering the CD with or without the glossary, for anyone that purchased it separately. Of course, until I get the component parts finished, it's all rather a moot point! Thanks for the support, though!
