The above website {cgsc.contentdm.oclc.org/cdm/landingpage/collection/p4013coll8 } gives access to much that may be of interest to forum members. For example, recently added documents include Eighth Air Force Mission Reports.
Base facilities summary: advance bases, Central Pacific Area, 30 June, 1945 (cgsc.contentdm.oclc.org/cdm/singleitem/c...coll8/id/2622/rec/90 ) is interesting as it contains detailed information about aviation facilities.

They have some interesting booklets published after (during?) WWII showing enemy equipment like radio, radar etc. With pictures and description.
You have to be careful, some of the reports there appear to have been written by students as projects and not always reliable.

I am inclined to agree that some of the documents need to be treated with caution, however, with patience some gems can be unearthed.
Operations Repulse, resupply by air, Belgium December, 1944. - cgsc.contentdm.oclc.org/cdm/singleitem/c...3coll8/id/4552/rec/1
This report by IX Troop Carrier Command of the resupply of Bastogne describes the use of MIDNITE, a lighted airway.

There is a detailed report on a Combined Operations conference that was held in Largs to discuss many of the details about OVERLORD including the decision about the Mulberry Harbour.
Report on staff officers' courses held at Combined Training Centre, Largs : 30 Jul 43-18 Mar 44. . Some other files as well .
I mentioned previously that there are quite a few like this one that describe different types of enemy equipment. You have to be careful because there are often several parts and not always sure if they are downloaded as one file or whether you have to download them all deparately.
Japanese electronics : supplement.
I think there are some with aerial photographs of different types of enemy targets.
