My Apologies
To those who have sent
their names and additional
information, that I have
not yet added.

This project has become
very large and though I
work on it almost every
day, it is impossible
for me to keep up.

I will continue to add the
names and information as
quickly as I can.

Thank You All
For Your Support

". . . Chief do we have an unscrambler?
This message is screwed up and it's from us. "

The men of CR Division are responsible for handling an average
of 1200 messages a day, and sometimes as many as 2000!

They are responsible for the transmission and reception of all electrical
communications. In addition, the message processing center serves
as a relay station to smaller ships in company with INDY.

Their procedures include circuit operation, internal and external routing
of messages, and reproduction of messages for over the counter delivery.
