Yes can be done BUT it is essential that one person gets an allocation of pages. I would not be happy to spend and hour on each page only to find it has been done already.

Having slept on it, can I suggest a typed extract would be better than overwriting the original as I have done?

P.s My Dad fought through the 1915-16 battle at Ypres salient, which made reading  this very interesting if not sad. So many killed and missing. Make me realise what the old boy went through.

I don't know if you already have enough help but I would be happy to transcribe some pages if you are still needing volunteers.
