I hope someone from the military can step in to tell us how
much time they were given to get the code down. I think
they had to "Cram".
Navy RM "A" School, the basic school which trained Navy Radiomen, was 13-weeks
long. Morse practice was 3 hours per day, 4 days per week, but students could
come in after-hours for additional practice. Graduation requirement was to be
able to copy 5-letter coded groups at 18WPM for 10 minutes, with 3 uncorrected
errors allowed.
