Re: NOMENCLATURE OF LUTWAFFE AIR BASES in FRance

Hello Nick,
Thanks for the explanation. I have been looking at the HW5 files looking for information on luftwaffe units in western Europe. Throughout 1943 there is not that much. Morten Jesse suggested that these units send their messages by telex cables, and were therefore not picked up by ULTRA. I have not looked at 1944, but in March 1945 more western Europe radio traffic is decoded by ULTRA. I assume that the infrastructure was breaking down and they had to resort to radio for sending their messages.

Dennis
