Re: Luftwaffe Personnel spying for Allies?
You come across it all the way through HW5 and there are numerous examples quoted on my website. In my view it is simply a device to obscure the true origin of the material, i.e. intercepted and deciphered wireless transmissions.
Breaks in reception are disguised as "smudge", "several words illegible", "badly tattered document" etc.
If you look at the front several pages of each HW5 you'll see a long list of the different German wireless networks a(nd their wavelengths) from which the intelligence was derived.
