Jim Payne says "Here I have produced a CD containing 30 high resolution scans of photos and documents which belonged to Royal Navy Lieutenant Henry Wright RNVR.

Henry Wright served as an Engineer Officer on landing ship tank HM LST 214 at Normandy between June and October 1944, and on HM LST 214 and flotilla duties for 4st LST Flotilla between January 1945 and April 1946.

The CD contains some nice shots of LSTs, both at Normandy (including wounded and German POWs on landing craft going back to England ) and LST flotilla at Messine , Italy .  Documents include his naval pay and identify book, a Christmas card featuring a cartoon landing craft (sent to his wife), and around 10 wartime Admiralty/Navy letters and documents."

The images here are very low resolution only, on the CD they print out to A4 and A3 really well. Jim is doing an amazing job, buying in these albums at auctions etc, and rather than keeping them to himself in his own collection, he is making them easily available to all, costs ?? with p&p, less than a £ tenner - an amazing buy. The more you buy off him, the more albums he will get and so the the more you will get, so do it!! I have because I want to see more.
