Attention members of the TimeGhost Army! 

We are looking for someone to join the D-Day research team!

As you all (hopefully) know, our D-Day Documentary project is progressing every day. We are currently using after-action reports, war diaries, and other sources to research an extensive timeline of the entire 24 hours of June 6. When it is finished, we will have a picture of the day that goes right down into the minute-by-minute detail. 

It's a big task, but we're making steady progress. There is one thing we're missing, though: the actions of the French Resistance. This is complicated for several reasons; the non-typical nature of partisan military operations, the silences in the historical record, and practical challenges of archival work, to name just a few.

So we're looking to hire a skilled historical researcher who can take on this challenge and help us add the French dimension to our timeline. The researcher would, of course, need to be fluent in French and have (or be studying for) the academic equivalent of a master's degree in History.

Are you that person, or do you know someone who is?

 If so, please send an email to workwithus@timeghost.tv with a short explanation on your motivation, how you think you'd get started on the work, and an attached CV.

Francis will be reviewing your emails and he's very much looking forward to hearing from you.

Excelsior!

I'd suggest you to create an email address that's not called "internships" if this is not an internship, and maybe forward everything automatically if that helps your workflow. You made it very clear here, but someone spreading the word with the best intention but an incomplete text may result in the best researcher of the whole France passing on it because of that email address. In my experience, unless things are unequivocally explicit, they can still be clear... until they aren't. :D

Have you reached out already to the History Youtuber Quentin Censier, from the "Sur le champ" channel. He is extensively using french history sources and could provide some help to you. https://youtube.com/c/Surlechamp

I'm hesitating to apply but, First, I'm in a master degree of History (2nd year) but I'm going to abandonned it due to poor motivation and poor supervision by my professor. Second flaw : I don't think I'm "skilled ". So I'm hesitating, but i hope you're goint to find the person you need because you're doing amasing work !

I am neither French nor a researcher, but boy do I love the food....
