Understanding cables
Every cable message consists of three parts:
  • The top box shows each cables unique reference number, when and by whom it originally was sent, and what its initial classification was.
  • 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: INDIA WILL LIKELY SUPPORT MANDATE EXTENSION, BUT 
NOT A RESOLUTION CRITICAL OF BURMA 
 
REF: SECSTATE 28922 
 
Poloff delivered reftel demarche to MEA Director (United 
Nations Economic and Social) Dinesh Patnaik on March 20, 
seeking India's support both for a resolution criticizing 
the failings of the Burmese regime and for an extension of 
the mandate for the UN's Special Rapporteur for the human
