[CW] US Navy has returned to teaching Morse to select trainees:

[D.J.J. Ring, Jr.]

Deception?  You weren't the  guy who when they were still using Morse on
fishing vessels, said "Hey, we have quite a catch over here in Lat. Long.
so much fish we cannot count...'' and wait for No-No MARU to haul anchor
and proceed in that direction  are you?

Oh, yeah, being a spook you can't say, and if you told me, you'd have to
put QRM in my ears.

I got it now.

They really did do those things in the 1930s on fishing ships with Morse.
