I am one of two archivists on site. I oversee what we call the Global War on Terrorism (GWOT) Archives. I help arrange and manage many thousands of digital and analogue documents, some of which are used as primary source materials for our publications. These materials ultimately reside in the Combined Arms Research Library on post.
