Hoi,
The big problem is the size of the material .. The video created by the New
York chapter can be found on Commons in a REALLY small window. Nice that it
is there but it is hardly usable.
There is a military project in many wikipedias certainly in the English
language one. They would really appreciate it.. In a similar way, we may be
able getting material from the "politionele acties" in Indonesia ... I am
not into this really and given my expectation that there may be movies in
it, I have kept quiet on it.
Thanks,
GerardM
