(at around 1h 8 mins) Thurman explains to Nimitz how they fill in the blanks in garbled Japanese messages by using intuition. This scene is lifted largely from a similar scene in La battaglia di Midway (1976) in which the chief intelligence officer at Pearl Harbor makes a similar statement, but resents the word "guess", preferring to call it "analysis". It should be noted that Admiral Chester W. Nimitz was a much more reasonable man than is depicted here, both in this scene and in the depicted pessimism in the meeting with FDR.
