Talk:Rufus S. Bratton
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"as it comes out of the description machine, codenamed "Purple."
Is "decryption machine" intended? It seems to be implied that there is a conflict between a transcript being called "Magic" and the machine "Purple". "Magic" applied to all crypto intel. "Purple" was a specific cypher.

THe story jumps from Bratton allegedly trying to contact Marshall to Bendetson coming back from Hawaii, and Bendesons messages from Short & Kimmell sound like CA or "covering ass" messages, blaming anyone in Washington for not being on alert! Claussen says that the stages of alert were 1,2,3 not Red, Yellow etc. Hugo999 20:06, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
