North Africa
Major Trumpeor,
Waiting for the new
September key table (it replace the
compromised one). Every day, the staff tells me on the phone
the key of the day for our M-134C. Unfortunately I still
haven't received it and I have to decipher an important
message. I'm sure it starts with "TO Z US Z GHQ Z", but that
doesn't help me much.
Sergeant Garcia – Cipher clerk
Editor's note: The
Crib is given with spaces replaced by the
letter Z in capital letters for better readability. But do not
forget that the Sigaba interprets the spaces well and
translates them internally into the letter Z. On the other
hand, if you enter a letter Z (which is indicated by a
lowercase "z"), it is translated by the letter X.
