top secret, eyes only, and other similar marks

I have a copy of a formerly-top-secret RAF report from the Korean War. (It came with the flight sim "MiG Alley".) There are things like "TOP SECRET", "Declassified", etc. on the cover. Let me know if you want something of '50s British vintage and I'll bring it to work next week and scan it.

Edit: Just noticed I'm a few weeks late here. But let me know if you're still looking.
Heck, I'd like to get a copy if it isnt much trouble...

I should clarify, I meant a copy of the cover and any pages with "SECRET" stamps etc. The whole document is 40-50 pages. I will scan a few of the more interesting pages for you, though. It's a fascinating report. It's an analysis of the F-86 and MiG 15 jet fighters and their tactics, written by RAF pilots who were sent to fly with the USAF in Korea to learn about "modern" air combat.

Here are some "scans" I did with a digicam (so the white pages aren't perfect):
http://www.igs.net/~lpopp/cfe/cover.jpg (lots of scribbled-over "SECRET" stamps etc.)
http://www.igs.net/~lpopp/cfe/title.jpg
http://www.igs.net/~lpopp/cfe/p19.jpg
That last page describes a simple tactic that could have downed large numbers of American fighters. No wonder the report was secret! Also note how the page footer gives the first word of the next page ("/Korean"), to help readers notice missing pages.

Neat... thanks!
