Greetings from Oxford! I have spent the most part of today adding some new material to the EJ Web Site. It all relates to Jünger's experience of the first World War - and, it has to be said, is mostly there for curiosity value. What we have among other things: Various pieces of narrative concerning the death of Lt. O. Stokes on 5th March 1917 (cf. Stahlgewittern, "Sommerückzug"). Material on EJ's "Pour le merite" - including a citation of his citation. Material on EJ in Flanders and Regnieville. Photos from the history of the 73rd Fusilier Regiment - including names and faces familiar from "In Stahlgewittern" Maps of a number of battles EJ was involved in. All this is to be found at http://www.sjc.ox.ac.uk/users/king/juenger/ww1/ww1extra.html. I'd be very grateful if people could have a look and let me know their comments. Also, I intend to upgrade the graphics situation on the Web Site as it's all rather gray. Does anyone have any suggestions for colour schemes? Also I am just about to update the bibliography of secondary literature. This is now well over 1000 items long and is still not complete. One of these days I am going to write a funky Java applet that will allow an "on-line" search facility. Best wishes for Easter, John King
