If you are just accessing the USAAF photos collection then it should be free but if you wander into some other areas like the War Diaries then that is subscription only. If you just use the search facility it brings back both free an paid for results.
Its telling me to register now regardless of what I am searching for.
It now gives a 7 day free trial, I don't really want to start paying for something I use occasionally.
I found the best way to do the seven free day trial is wait for a week that you're off work or available, and get ready to search and download as much as you can in that time. Also make a list of what you want to access and stick to it, very easy to start browsing and wandering off down other avenues! Also, use family or partners etc names/emails to access multiple weeks.
It is very easy to unsubscribe and you get confirmation of this.
Just a quick note to say that the entire Fold3 WWII Collection is FREE to access until the end of the month, including all the sections that you usually have to pay for such as MACRs, etc.
