Re: Luftwaffe Personnel spying for Allies?
Hi, Nick
So - what you are saying is that the headings of virtually all the documents in the HW 5 files are to be discarded, and that they are to read: Intercepted coded enemy radio traffic says that.... Instead of: Norse and Danish sources report On 20/6 source was able to see etc etc etc as shown in the following documents: Example 1: http://www.ahs.no/discussion_images/HW5-1-001.JPG Example 2: http://www.ahs.no/discussion_images/HW5-1-002.JPG Example 3: http://www.ahs.no/discussion_images/HW5-1-003.JPG Example 4: http://www.ahs.no/discussion_images/HW5-21.JPG There are hundreds (or more) like these, and I would really like to see a confirmation that none of these messages came from humint sources. But then I guess I have been tricked by the british intelligence. I am also confused as to how the codes were solved if the transmissions were incomplete (as hundreds of these mesages imply that parts are missing...), for one I thought that the sign on sign off signals or "cribs" were a vital part when breaking the codes, and that once the settings for the code machines were known, the entire message could be decoded? I am also the curious to why the british are constantly misidentifying units (especielly when regarding roman vs arabic numbering), as the germans usually (have been through more original german messages than I would like to remember...) used the designation röm for roman in their messaging. Did the codebreakers miss that?? Does an archive that contain the decrypts as they really looked exist? As I know that norwegians were using radio transmissions to send information to the allies during the war, could someone then please relay information here on where that intelligence material are in the archives? Regards, Andreas |
