Does anyone know of any WW2 sites from the actual point of view of Japan and Germany? Not a site written by someone from records but with actual people or writings from the combatants.
Thanks
The Japanese Monographs are linked from the World War II Resources site, which is attempting to collate as much primary material as it can regarding WWII. (I have not seen a similar page for Germany, here.)
Another site with a lot of information (both from the Japanese and the U.S. perspectives) is at

Two books that provide an interesting perspective of the Japanese Naval Air Corps are Samurai! by Saburo Sakai and Zero by Masatake Okumiya, Jiro Horikoshi, Martin Caidin.
Martin Caidin? The one who wrote The Aquarius Mission and Cyborg?
What a hack.
(Although Bicycles in War was fascinating.)
