information in regard to the movement of a military aircraft was
communicated through an en clair telegram. During war-time it is
essential to maintain complete secrecy in regard to the intended

compromising certain codes and cyphers of the Royal Air Force and to

to his knowledge.

pertaining to the movements, etc.of military aircraft should be
communicated en clair to any authority in or outside inaia. if
there is no objectfon, the position may kindly be explained to all
officers subordinate to you#
