The United States Coast Guard Unit 387 became the official cryptanalytic unit of the Coast Guard collecting communications intelligence for Coast Guard, U.S. Department of Defense, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in 1931. Prior to becoming official, the Unit worked under the U.S. Treasury Department intercepting communications during the prohibition. The Unit was briefly absorbed into the U.S. Navy in 1941 during World War II (WWII) before returning to be a Coast Guard unit again following the war. The Unit contributed to significant success in deciphering rum runner codes during the prohibition and later Axis agent codes during WWII, leading to the breaking of several code systems including the Green and Red Enigma machines.

  • Die United States Coast Guard Unit 387 (kurz: USCG Unit 387; deutsch etwa „Gruppe 387 der Küstenwache der Vereinigten Staaten“) war die Kryptanalyseeinheit der amerikanischen Küstenwache. Zu ihren bedeutendsten Leistungen zählt der Bruch von abgefangenen geheimen Funksprüchen, Deckname Green (deutsch „Grün“), mit denen die deutsche Abwehr (Geheimdienst der Wehrmacht) während des Zweiten Weltkriegs ihr weltweites Spionagenetz steuerte, und die mithilfe der Rotor-Chiffriermaschine Enigma-G verschlüsselt worden waren.
