Excellent book on secrets

I've just been reading an amazing book that I think all black project watchers should rush out and get a copy of. It's called CODE NAMES by William M. Arkin and it spills the beans on over 3,000 military, government and intelligence agency code names used for restricted, classified and unclassified programs, systems projects,exercises and missions.

To quote the back-cover endorsements: "William Arkin makes amateurs of us all who think we know something about America's constantly expanding hidden world. Code Names is quite simply a stunning array of secrets and super secrets ." Seymour Hersh

I'm sure the Pentagon and CIA is reeling from the sheer amount of secrets that are revealed in this book. Although some may call Arkin a traitor of sorts for revealing these secrets, the cat is out of the bag and should be required reading for anyone interested in military and intelligence matters.

Not a cheap book by any means ($27) but well worth it in my opinion. Although some special access projects that have been known by black project watchers are missing from the listings, it still is an amazing and (almost) comprehensive source of military information that could serve Interceptors well.
