I would like to have some details (scans would be delightful) of the following
numbered leaflets dropped by the 406th Night Leaflet Squadron (USAAF) during
May of 1945.  Most of the drops were at airfields but a few were dropped on
marked open fields near cities and several drops occurred to Buchenwald.  Todays
quest is for info on the following:

VG-37P
DPF-1

They are not in the Allied Leaflets catalog.

Scans submitted to me will be added to the website server and forwarded
to the USAF Academy after enhancement.

Regards,

Tom, I've never seen those code numbers before, unless VG-37P is supposed to be the 37th issue of SHAEF newspaper (VG.37).

Do you have any titles or text for the leaflets? I know some leaflets were dropped in May 1945 addressed to Allied prisoners of war, foreign workers and displaced persons.

I'm guessing but the DPF code might actually mean "Displaced Persons, French"?

Best wishes,
