Yeah that works!
Let’s also tell the enemy exactly how many feet it will penetrate, what type of planes or missles will carry it, exactly when we will test it, and where they will be stored.
Gotta be PC ya-know! Don’t want the enemy to have to guess, like we did at Hiroshama. Wouldn’t want to have those pesky bomb belted women and children in the way!
It’s not too difficult to determine which platforms in our arsenal will carry the bomb, given that it weighs 30,000#.
You really only have 2 choices.
You are right. We are still suffering PR problems with that blunder. Just to be sure we should also tell them when we are going to be there.
They kept vital information as secret as possible, disseminated false information and tapped into the German and Japanese communications codes (Enigma and JN-25 respectively).
Now why are the generals and admirals unnecessarily revealing this vital information, huh? Why? They would have risked severe court martial for repeated violations of OPSEC protocol. What a childish way of waging psychological warfare. It just gives the enemy advance warning of intended U.S. strikes.
Adm. Chester Nimitz was much smarter. Remember the Battle of Midway and how he had covert access to JN-25?
