[ARC5] FW: How the U.S. Cracked Japan's 'Purple Encryption Machine' at the Dawn of World War II

[Glen Zook]

The "story" that I heard, about the fact that there were a significant number of aircraft, on the ground in the Philippines, was that they were airborne shortly after the information that Pearl Harbor had been attacked.  However, those aircraft had run out of fuel and were on the ground being refueled when the attack finally came.    

Very similar to what happened to the Japanese at the Battle of Midway.
