Zero Hour is a digital archive for teachers and students studying Australians in the First World War. It was presented today at the HTA Conference by Michael Molkentin and it is so good!!!! Check it out! It's got a teachers section (with a sample assessment task and marking criteria, plus other lesson ideas). I can't wait to use it in my classes!

Papers of the War Department 1784-1800 will present this collection of more than 55,000 documents in a free, online format with extensive and searchable metadata linked to digitized images of each document, thereby insuring free access for a wide range of users. 

Bibliographies of Civil War letters and diaries yet published. It lists over 1,000 published and unpublished items from a variety of sources, including online resources and microform. 

Vietnam War casualties listed by Home of Record. The name you seek may not be under the city you expect. The state index pages are based on each casualty's Official Home of Record. The home of record may be the place the person entered military service or that person's residence at that time. The home of record is not always that person's birthplace, home town, or place of high school graduation. If you don't find the name where you expect, please also look under nearby larger cities or see the index pages by last name.
