X-WR-CALDESC:17 July 1911: Cryptologic pioneers Parker Hitt & Genevieve You
 ng were married. In the photo are Parker and Genevieve Young Hitt with the
 ir daughter and their family dogs. \n\nColonel Parker Hitt's work\, 'The M
 anual for the Solution of Military Ciphers\,' published in 1916\, was the 
 first work of its kind in the United States in 100 years and laid the foun
 dation for the nation's impressive cryptologic achievements during the 20t
 h century. At a time when the nation had no formal cryptologic service\, P
 arker Hitt's innovative work documented concepts and principles that would
  be used to protect U.S. military communications for decades. His work als
 o directly influenced William and Elizebeth Friedman\, who referred to him
  as the 'father of modern American cryptology.' He was inducted into the N
 SA/CSS Cryptologic Hall of Honor in 2011.\n\nAs a young Texas debutante\, 
 Ms. Hitt probably never suspected she would one day be described as 'the U
 .S. Government's first female cryptologist.' She likely developed an inter
 est in cryptology alongside her husband\, Colonel Parker Hitt. Ms. Hitt de
 monstrated a clear knack for cipher work and aside from a brief visit to R
 iverbank Laboratories\, was self-taught. She initially deciphered messages
  without salary and in 1918 became a salaried Army employee\, performing c
 ode work for $1\,000 per year. She has also been credited with assisting i
 n the preparation and compilation of her husband's seminal work\, Manual f
 or the Solution of Military Ciphers\, published by the Army in 1916.\n\nSe
