Understanding cables
Every cable message consists of three parts:

  • The middle box contains the header information that is associated with the cable. It includes information about the receiver(s) as well as a general subject.
  • The bottom box presents the body of the cable. The opening can contain a more specific subject, references to other cables (browse by origin to find them) or additional comment. This is followed by the main contents of the cable: a summary, a collection of specific topics and a comment section.
To understand the justification used for the classification of each cable, please use this WikiSource article as reference.

SUBJECT:  AMBASSADOR STAPLETON'S VISIT TO USS OAK HILL 
 
ΒΆ1. (U)  CDR Stapf and LTCOL Arentz, I feel privileged to have spent 
time with the fine Navy and Marine Corps team aboard Oak Hill.  The 
visit was first class, an excellent lunch and an outstanding tour of 
such a clean ship.  Particularly, I was impressed with the men and 
women I met, all with high morale and proud to be serving our 
country!  Thank you for introducing me to the "Gator" Navy.    I 
wish you safe sailing as you continue the deployment and may you 
safely return home to your loved ones.  Craig R. Stapleton, U.S. 
Ambassador to France.
