Archival Justice: Operation Legacy in the Caribbean
This website makes documents taken from the Caribbean (under Operation Legacy) accessible to researchers who specialize in the study of the Caribbean.
These documents are now housed in The National Archives of the United Kingdom.
They are listed as the “Migrated Archives” and are part of the FCO 141 series.
