Famous Name Dropping

Due to the continuing secret nature of Camp X, its work and its alumni, it does not seem proper to name Ian Fleming or any other famous person, this being, until official confirmation or disproof, plain conjecture. Many later celebrities received training at Camp X, although not all were specifically spies, being trained in certain skills required in their MOEs. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.13.31.135 (talk) 05:37, 5 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"Before the attack on Pearl Harbor, Camp X served ..."

Wow, it opened on December 6, 1941. So, it served in these important roles for all of ONE DAY. Doesn't this need to be worded better?2600:1004:B16D:AA57:A037:1F9A:164E:564E (talk) 00:34, 7 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I have re-worded the offending line.

main reference

Right now, the main reference is a children's fiction novel. Did Walters write another actual history book? Orthografer (talk) 00:11, 15 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This seems familiar.....

In the "On This Day" snippet, there is a link to a definition of a different kind of "covert operations" (considering only covert information gathering/spying), while this facility also trained offensive "covert operations" (such as sabotage and other attacks behind enemy lines).2A01:4F0:4018:F0:FCBE:52CC:2157:85D0 (talk) 15:26, 6 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Letter or Roman Number?

Was this called "camp eks" or "camp ten"... i.e. the letter or Roman numeral? — Eoghanacht ^talk 19:25, 6 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
