George McDonald to Carl Spaatz, June 21, 1944
The Normandy landings and many other British and Allied operations were greatly facilitated by successful code-breaking efforts. For security reasons, information from decrypted German communications intercepts, which was given the code name ultra, was given only to a few high-ranking military leaders. This review of German Air Force (G.A.F) activity, made shortly after D-Day, contains such super-secret information. All persons to whom the review was sent were warned that they should burn their copies after reading them. Clearly not everyone obeyed the requirement. |
