German Air Force codes

[edwest]

The NARA in Washington, D.C. has some declassified records that may be of interest to a few here. The page itself is daunting, lsting a huge number of documents. On the left side of the page is some numbering, of which I'll mention a few of interest.

NR 8 German Air Codes

NR 22 3 Digit Code Book Taken From ME410 Aircraft

NR 98 German Codes For Freya And Wurzburg Signals

NR 292 German Fighter Slang Code

Also see, NR 783, 785, and 798.


Definitely not for the feint of heart, but may be of value if examined in pieces over a number of days. Unfortunately, it is not just about the Luftwaffe.

Hi Ed,

Many thanks for the link, the Photo Gallery is not too bad either.
Have you got any idea of how to possibly order copies of these documents, I couldn't find any reference to this on the site.

once again hats off to Mr West - Sir without people like you TOCH would not be a community!


As for interesting items I found a few:

NR 114 CBBA26 3222A 19450000 GERMAN AIR FORCE CODE BOOK
NR 168 CBBA32 3446A 19441226 CODE GROUPS FOR RADIO COMMUNICATIONS (LUFTWAFFE)
NR 79 CBBA22 3111A 19361128 RADIO INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE GERMAN AIR FORCE

If you key word search within your browser it is very easy to find things... and for ordering I think you need to submit a Freedom of Information Act request.

National Security Agency
Attn: FOIA/PA Office (DC321)
