The IBM Tree and Tube computers

[Jim Isbell, W5JAI]

I can say, it was USAF Special Weapons but cant say further.  It wasn't
mentioned in a magazine, it was in a book but the program was not revealed,
just that the computer was used and that it was Cold War espionage.  I knew
what it was about because I had information not in the article.  No one else
would have known unless they were part of the project.  I assume its been
declassified but I have never seen anything about it in print or on the news
so maybe it hasn't been.  Personally I prefer Corpus Christi, Texas to
Leavenworth, Kansas...especially at this time of the year.
