The vague "Navy assisted" with the wet Japanese The Army codes at Sio found by Australian Army troops

What exactly did the U.S. Navy help with with regards to the mainline Japanese Army code discovery and decryption at Sio? The one author source and the original author of the Wikipedia article's section for some reason didn't bother to clarify what the Navy did to assist and made it sound like Central Bureau needed the U.S. Navy's assistance when that was not the case. MacArthur did have to ask the Navy for USN aircraft carrier assistance for Hollandia and Aitape due to aircraft range issues with USAF and RAAF bombers. That Army discovery and Army decryption helped Allied forces to advance rapidly towards the Philippines starting with Hollandia/Aitape in April 1944. The decryption windfall started giving results in March 1944. Nimuda (talk) 23:32, 18 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
