KEY LIST OF ARMY VIOlNl'IONS 

OCT., NOV., & DEC., 1954 

ROTOR ARRANGEME~T 

Use for enci~hermcnt of an incorrect rotor arrangement and/or 

alignment. {Reference AFSAG 1262, para 5oo6a(l) and/or AFSAG 

1231.B para 6002a(2)) 

Use of a rotor arrangement for an inappropriate cryptoperiod, day, 

or month. (Reference AFSAG 1262, para 5oo6a(l)) 

Use for encipherment of superseded rotors. 

ROTOR ALIGNME:NT AND MESSAGE IND;ICATOR 

. . 

Discrepancy between the message rotor alignment resulting from 

decipherment of the message indicator and the message rotor alignment actually required to decipher the message, although the latter 

wa.s correctly derived. The discrepancy involves (a) transposition 

of letters, (b) substitution of a letter alphabetically adjacent 

to the correct letter, (c) substitution of a phonetically similar 

letter, or (d) errors in encipherment. 

Identical message indicators appeared on different messages (or ~ 

transmission sections) enciphered on the same machine. Use of the 

message rotor alignment resulting from decipherment or the message 

indicator allowed decipherment of the first but not the second 

message. The message rotor alignment actually used for encipherment of the second message was properly tai\ed to the final alignment of the first message. 

Failure to tail previously enciphered message.(Referencc AFSAG 1262, 

para 6o02a( 4)) 

Omission or addition of one or more letters to the message indicator. 

Decipherment of the message indicator resulted in a message rotor 

alignment identical to the final alignment or the previous message. 

(Reference AFSAG 1262, para 6002a(4)) 

KEY GROUP 

9. The tri~raphic key-group indicator in the messo,ge indicator did not 

correspond to the key group actually used for encipherment. Reuse 

of a key group was not involved. (Reference AFSAG 1262, para 50o4b) 

10. Reuse for encipherment or the same key group. (Reference AFSAG 1262, 

pa.ra 6002b ( 4) ) 

11. Use for encipherment or an unauthorized key group.

MJ\.CHINE DESIGNATOR MID MULTISWI'mH SE'rr!NG 

12. The machine designator in the message indicator did not correspond 

to the multiswitch setting used for encipherment. The messages 

were (a) correctly enciphered or (b) incorrectly enciphered. 

(Reference AFSAG 1262, para 6002a(l)) 

14. 

ENCIPHER DECIPHER CARD 

Incorrect use or an ORCUS enciphering card to produce a message 

indicator. (Reference AFSAG 1262, para 5005c) 

Use for encipherment of a noneffective ORCUS enciphering card. 

ADDITIONAL VIOLATIONS 

15. Transmission in the clear of classified information. 

16. Transmission of classified information in monoalphabetic substitution cipher. 

17• Transmission of a message in which there was faulty roto~ stepping 

during encipherrnent. (Reference AFSAG 1262, para 6002a(3))
