 d\, he managed to decipher nearly all\, if not all\, of the British code m
 essages obtained in one way or another by the Americans. Of course\, the p
 rimary way in which enemy messages could be obtained in those days was to 
 capture couriers\, knock them out or knock them off\, and take the message
 s from them. This was very rough stuff\, compared to getting the material 
 by radio intercept\, as we do nowadays.\n\nThis one-man NSA was James Love
 ll\, and besides being a self-trained cryptologist\, he was also a member 
 of the Continental Congress. With his cipher designs\, Lovell became Ameri
 ca's first cryptographic tutor.\n\nLearn more about James Lovell and see e
