In reference to your inquiry regarding AWS-12 we have conducted a search for the records you seek, but we have been unable to locate any responsive records. Any other information, if it is there at all, is dispersed elsewhere among the records and finding it will require more detailed research than we are staffed to provide. We regret that we cannot assist you further as records within our current holdings.
We invite you to continue the conversation with community members on History Hub, but should you have follow up questions for the staff at Archives II, please email us at archives2reference@nara.gov so that we can assist you further.
We hope this assists you with your research!
