Sorry not answer right away, I was very busy at work, the Book was called "East Wind Rain" and it was promoted in th 70's or 80's as a smoking gun type expose', I am not promoting the belief, just the various therories that I have encountered on this fascinating subject. According to the book, a retired Navy Warrant Officer was an intercept operator at Hypo, and when he looked at his log in the National Archives, someone had razored out the entry reporting the winds execute message. (He was fluent in Japanese and was at the time-Dec 7 41- a low ranking seaman).....I heard all this on the godfather of CT shows, Barry Farber in New York on WOR radio, now I think that Barry did not endorse this, he just let them on to sell air time...
My opinion is, that there might have been some "cya" activity going on, but so far none of the CT'er have presented any real "Smoking Gun"...
