Historical References Thread. Any Interest?

I enjoy playing CEaW from a "studying" that period of history point-of-view. I assume that there are others here that also enjoy that point of view. If you read through the threads there are several references (links) to historical articles related to WWII. I was wondering if there was any interest on the part of the moderators and forum users to create a "sticky" where we could post references (links) to relevant historical articles? Personally, I'd find something like useful and enjoyable. What do you think?

I'm happy to set something like this up if there is interest in it.

1. Eisenhower's report on operation Torch

2. Siege of Malta

3. The Japanese Story of the Battle of Midway

I don't want to spoil the party, but the Armchair General Forum threads are immense in scope and the 'robust' discussions that take place there discuss a vast array of historical positions.
Would it not be better to carry CEAW's strengths out to a bigger 'gene pool'; (who may be interested in playing).
Than to replicate historical discussions here to a smaller audience.
-just my 2 cents.

I think some people prefer to surf one place and get all they need rather than look around for it. Rkr, do you want to start a new thread introducing the idea and I can sticky it rather than having it mixed up with this discussion?

Sure. Thank you.
