[edit] Dundee Society

Could anyone cite a reference about the Dundee Society? Sv1xv (talk) 11:31, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

See Kahn's The Codebreakers. I think I saw a marmalade jar in the National Cryptologic Museum. Howard C. Berkowitz (talk) 02:34, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

I have found reference to L.D.C. and his course but not to the Dundee Society. Could you please tell me in which chapter I should search for this ? Sv1xv (talk) 08:41, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Part of Military History?

I received some private communication by a fellow WP editor that this article does not belong in the WP Military History, since it is a fictional exercise with no direct connection to actual military operations. Any views & opinions? Sv1xv (talk) 15:11, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

At the National Training Center, heavy battalions fight "Krasnovians". Clearly, since there is no such country, that must be a fictional exercise with no direct connection to actual military operations. Howard C. Berkowitz (talk) 02:36, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
The main argument is that the Z.P. generally doesn't involve any military units, not even ours. Most if not all of the students trained using the Z.P. were civilian. — DAGwyn (talk) 16:02, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
