To Whom It May Concern,


My name is Jillian Augustat and I am a research assistant at the University
of Michigan. I am currently studying the troubles in Northern Ireland and
many of my primary military documents are from the archives. My research
team visited the archives in 2010 and brought back copies of British
military maps of Northern Ireland, but I am having trouble matching up the
coordinates of the military maps with locations mentioned in the British
military log files.

The real issue is that most of the military log files I have don't include
the Grid Reference Sq. Letter necessary to locate the place on a map. For
example, on IMG_2681, there are 6 digit Grid Reference points, but no
letters in which to identify the square it's in.
I was wondering if there was a British military historian I could reach or
possibly a map historian. Any and all information is appreciated.

Thank you,

Jillian Augustat
