RMKS/1. As discussed reference (a), officers with designators 181X, 681X, and 781X are designated as Cryptologic Warfare effective immediately.
2. From the establishment of the Communications Security Group, the cryptologic community has continued to evolve to meet and defeat the threats it faces. The transition of the Information Dominance Corps to the Information Warfare Community in concert with the Chief of Naval Operations Design for Maritime Superiority has given Cryptologists another opportunity to formalize this evolution and define community identity.
The Cryptologic Warfare designation honors the cryptologic heritage, recognizes the military effects these warfighters deliver, and aligns these officers along with Cyber Warfare Engineers, Cyber Warrant Officers, and Civilian personnel with their enlisted force.
3. Released By Vice Admiral Ted N. Branch, Deputy Chief of Naval Operations for Information Warfare, OPNAV N2N6.//

How does a family member of one who served in this field during WW2, with never ANY public recognition or knowledge of those “extra duties,” … explain what and how he did in those unknown Cryptologic duties during a time of World Warfare, when there has been so little publicly written or discussed about what and how they accomplished what they did, without any thought of recognition or honor from their comrades in arms, or even from their families for their efforts which have remained “undercover” for 80 years? The last one has gone from their ranks before anyone has had an opportunity to know about and recognize what they accomplished for the good of our freedom and liberties.
