Seeking records of 517th Parachute Regimental Combat Team

I'm interested in finding any records relating to the 517th Parachute Regimental Combat Team (consisting of the 517th Parachute Infantry Regiment, the 463rd Parachute Field Artillery Battalion and the 596th Parachute Engineer Company). I'm very interested in obtaining morning reports from the companies and the various General Orders for the regiment. Thanks for any help you may be able to provide!
