Over on Facebook I encountered some fella claiming to have Navy jacket spec sheets. He posted page one of several, then said nothing when I asked about the rest of the documents.
Finally he said, rather tartly i thought, "what are they worth to you? I invested time and money to research this at the National Archives. i want some of it back!"
I said it was questionable to charge a fee for research long since completed. I did offer an in-kind exchange, which he pointedly refused.
Lately i proposed a group buy, where several members would chip in and share the specs. Again he said nothing.
So...anybody interested in going in with me? Or...is this guy just a money grubbing so and so?
