Codebreaker unlocks the 3,000 secrets of US military vocabulary
By Rupert Cornwell in Washington
24 January 2005


If you had heard of "Power Geyser", "Titrant Ranger", "Toychest" or "Barracuda" before today, you were privy to the innermost workings of the US defence establishment. Now, however, those secrets are being exposed to general scrutiny for the first time.

In a remarkable book to be published this week, William Arkin, a former intelligence officer and analyst, lists and defines 3,000 codenames for military and national security plans past and present, several of them involving Britain and many of them still classified.

"Project 19" is about the defence of Taiwan against an attack by China. "Beady Eye", "Barracuda", "Soothsayer", "Delphin", "Pinemartin" and "Odette" are among the 13 codenames listed by Mr Arkin for British intelligence operations related to the "war on terror".

They weren't happy about that, but if memory serves me correctly, it was either about 15 miles away from DC, or in Pennsylvania

2. Came out a couple of years ago

Yeah, it's the place you're thinking of. There was one piece on it quite some time ago, and another about 8 months ago. Most news media won't even mention it, because they have no balls.

3. I remember when they were

always making fun of Saddam Hussein for hiding in bunkers. That was silly talk when you think that Bush & co run of to bunkers as well.
