Richard,
Yes, that's always the way: never the images you need/want. When I was writing Mud and Dust it became apparent that there were some glaring deficiencies with the Vietnam coverage, so I went searching and found vets with several images to fill in the holes. Fortunately, they were willing to provide them for the AWMs use in the book, otherwise I'd have been a bit light on in such areas as semitrailers and tank transporters. Just shows that 800,000 images don't cover every aspect of the subject.
