The Ghost Army archive contains both physical items, such as photographs, letters, maps and artifacts; and an even larger digital collection that includes more of those items as well as documents, video interviews and oral histories. GALP is intent on expanding its archive by reaching out to a wider circle of Ghost Army veterans, their families and others to acquire additional relevant materials. Several veterans' families have recently donated major collections. A part time archivist is digitally scanning, categorizing and cataloguing archived materials that the organization currently possesses.

You can find an overview of our collections here.  We have also  published our collection list to a Google Sheet, enabling you to browse the collection or search for specific items. We plan to post other finding aids in the near future. We want these materials accessible to researchers, including the growing number of middle school and high school students who contact us each year for help on their Ghost Army projects for National History Day.  
 
Eventually, our plans call for donating the archive to a major research institution so these materials will always be preserved and available to researchers.

If you are interested in donating material to the Ghost Army archive, you can contact Rick Beyer at rick@ghostarmyorg, or send us a note through the contact page.
