I received a copy of the Air Force archives of the monthly reports. Sadly, over half of them are very faded and didn’t scan very well, however, I decided to try to hand type as much of this information as I can transfer. So far I have about half of the chapters converted. The other half are too damaged to recognize but I am working my way through them.

Below is the table of contents for the reports. In itself, it provides valuable insight to where the 89th was stationed and a time line for events
